What a blessing! I was having a bad week and I began looking at this website. I found this article and it was very uplifting! It's funny how God sends us words we need to hear (or read) at different times in our lives. I sure needed to hear this today! God Bless You!
New Ground goes further than the ears they reach the soul. Robbie and Dale are very special people, and we love them from the bottom of our hearts. I always thought Robbie could sing, I always thought Robbie could do everything. I love you.

We are convinced that God puts people into your life that He wants you to associate with. A couple of years ago, he placed New Ground into our lives. Never have we had such coaches, mentors, cheerleaders, and wonderful friends as these 3 people. Robbie, you're one of a kind. Dale, what a wealth of knowledge. Dave, what a talent. Thanks, guys, for all you have done for us. We can never repay. We know that you deserve every accolade that God sends your way. We love ya!
It is so exciting and uplifting, to see what a wonderful work that God is doing through the Dunaway Family. Your humbleness and Your willingness to follow God has touched many lives, And we Just want to say that Your Friendship and Your Spiritual Life has forever touch our life and has been such a blessing to us. The Dunaway Family is just Simply Awesome.
Bro. Randle, Tammy, and Kanah, this is just great! My prayers are with you all. Your ministry is so important because it is so real. God is blessing and it shows. I've been blessed knowing you and your family. God bless, Jon Eric
Shane:
What an awesome article you presented! You will never know how special you and Diana & Zachary are to the entire New Desire team. Thanks for inviting us to perform on your showcase at NQC. We were certainly honored, and were thrilled at the overwhelming response that we have received since that appearance. I personally hope we get to work together again for you. If you ever need us, just give us a call anytime.
The Dunaways are awesome. The love they have for the Lord is felt in everything they do. I worked with them personally on my second recording project through their studio, Truth Records. They are great friends of mine. Congrats to the Dunaways....
Hello, Ms. Dunaway had visit our church around 5 years ago. We had such a great time. Their harmony is wonderful!! Keep up the good work, guys!! God Bless!
Stephanie Long
Congratulations!!
The Dunaways
Not that I'm anybody extraordinary, but I wouldn't be where I am today had it not been for Robbie Maxwell. I'm just one of a number of individuals she and Dale have helped aspire to greater heights in the Southern Gospel music industry. Thanks Robbie.
Dale is my mentor as a musician - the boy can play anything he puts his hands on. And you should hear him sing "Rank Stranger." Be sure and request it at their next concert.
David is pretty much worthless, but I love him anyway! (just kidding D).
I'm blessed to know these wonderful Southern Gospel artists, but I'm most blessed to call them friends. You guys are awesome.
Sing-cerely,
Eddie
The Rochesters are not only great singers but great people. My family used to do an annual campmeeting with them. No one can understand their talent fully until you've seen them in person. By the way, they are top-notch A-1 in the class department. First class all the way. God Bless
We love to hear Mike and the Crabb family sing! We have heard them several times and it's always a blessing! My husband is a HUGE Mike Bowling fan. Keep up the good work, guys! We love you all!

New Ground: we love from the bottom of our hearts.Just had them at my church and they were awesome. Robbie dale and david keep on kicking for jesus Christ.
HeavenSound.com is a great source for concerts. It can be searched by State and you can sign up for an email to be delivered by state. Check it out at http://www.heavensound.com
SingingNews.com has all that information
They are wonderfun. I have loved "NEW GROUND" since the first time I heard them over 1- 1/2 years ago.
This is awesome!!! Great idea 3 for 1!!! So many times you go to concerts and can't get a chance to really talk with the artists so I can't wait to get to know ya'll better!
please tell me if there is a single site where one can find the concert dates for all the southern gospel groups for each month.
thank you.
I Love New Ground , thier sound ,the way they worship in song. At WPNX
AM 1460 in Columbus Ga. they are tops on our "gotta
play list" Watch how God will use them
in the future!!!!!! Billy Bob
I have had the chance to work with Trey in and out of the studio, and have enjoyed seeing him as a soloist as well as when he has filled in for several groups. I look forward to seeing him grow in Gospel Music as a whole. Blessings!
I've had the great pleasure of hearing Trey in several concerts. He is a great talent and will be a wonderful addition to Jennifer McKamey & By Grace. I can not wait to hear him in concert with them soon! Good luck in all that you do! I will be praying for you, Trey!
hi shane ferrell,
i was reading over your news letter and thinking about your comments and thinking of how nice it is for you to pray for your artist even when it seems that things are not at all that great your way . it takes a person with a mighty big heart and a love for god to look at other people and see the good in them instead of zoning in on our own selfs. shane my sister and i and our first cousin have a southern gospel singing group called marks of grace minitries we have just made a cd with my sister and it is titled donna carline and family every song on the cd is original material that god has given to my sister and myself. i would love to send you a copy if it would be of any intrest to you please call me my name is mark dunn my #225-791-0180 are you can e-mail my sister her name is donna carline her e-mail is .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) thank you for taking the time to read god bless mark dunn
Dottie,
Keep being a blessing to others by lifting up our Savior.

I will miss your vocal testimonys and talking with you after the shows! I wish you and your wife the very best in all your endeavors!

I think Mike Bowling is great. He seems to be sincere.
Artist change who they work with all the time. Past is past. I can't imagine hime leaving on bad terms with the Hinson's but only he and the Hinson's know what went on - and God will be the ultimate judge. Not any of us.
yeah maleah, you would think he sounds like kenny! LOL! but i do have to agree with you.
erin
THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT ONLY SINGERS WHO SPREAD GOD'S WORD THROUGH VOICES FULL OF PRAISE; BUT ONCE YOU HAVE MET THEM , THEY WILL BECOME LIFELONG FRIENDS.
GOD HAS NOT ONLY BLESSED THEM; BUT HAS BLESSED US BY KNOWING THEM. THESE ARE SPECIAL PEOPLE THAT GOD HAS CHOSEN TO SPREAD HIS WORD AND HIS LOVE!!!
I have know Dale, Robbie and David a number of years and my love for them and their Ministry just keeps growing.We recently sung with these folks and let me tell you it was a great time with the lord.If you ever need a spirit filled group that brings the Lord with them then its New Ground.
Love and Prayers
Jim
Mike is AWESOME!!!! I've never been blessed with the opportunity to hear him OR the Crabbs in person.....but I've got cd's! hehe 
What a voice this guy has! Sounds a little like Kenny Hinson...yet unique at the same time! Awesome songs! Can't wait for the next album

Great article John...Harmoneers was my favorite group as a young teenager..Happy Edwards was certainly a delightful fellow as well were all the fellows..It was always good to be with them at the Grand Ole Gospel Reunion in Greenville, SC when they were able to attend..
I have known Robbie for over 38 years. We have shared some great times in our school years together. It does my heart good to see such a wonderful person as Robbie be a success. The Lord has blessed her and blessed me for the opportunity to call her my dear friend. Good Luck New Ground.
I wanted to add to the last e-mail that my church in McComb, Illinois had never had southern gospel groups to come in until HisSong and now the church is sold on southern gospel. Thank You HisSong
Amanda Lewis
McComb, Illinois
HisSong was at my church a couple wks ago and what a impression they made on me and my family. We were so amazed by these 3 guys. There harmony is amazing but they also have the spirit behind what they sing about.
I went to there web site and saw under the links page about sogospelnews.com. I had never been to this site but it`s a blessing as well.
I hope to see and hear more of HisSong. May God Bless
I applaud your decision to come off the road to be with your wife. My husband and I suffered a devestating miscarriage early last year after trying for a while. Thanks to God and a doctor's wisdom, we were blessed with a little girl in time to celebrate the New Year. She is truly God's gift to us!!! We know God has the same in store for you.
To Parker and Paula,
God Bless you both, I know what you've been through as I've been throught it many years ago... My heart and prayers go out to both of you...
Parker I've seen you holding babies, and I know you'll make a great daddy.
Our loss is Paula's gain , and that is how it should be...
You were my favorite Kingsmen/Carolina guy, as I've talked several times to you...God works in many ways...
Remember "You're Never Alone"
I'll miss you, but I have videos, CD'S and the Sky Angel, so I'll always be able to see and hear you in my home...
God Bless ...
Mike Bowling & The Crabb Family are such a blessing to me and my family. We go hear them every chance we get and always will. We love you all and always praying for you!

Mike Bowling is featured in the current Nov/Dec issue of Gospel Music Profiles Magazine. He is our featured artist in the Off Stage section. Mike reveals his favorites such as musical influences, foods, scripture, sports, and collections. To learn more please visit [url=http://www.gospelmusicprofiles.com]http://www.gospelmusicprofiles.com[/url]
Thank you Parker for reminding all of us that God's priorities matter. I know that the Lord will continue to use you in a mighty way as you remain open to His leading. I thank God for the blessing you have been to me and to so many others through the music He has given us through you. And I pray that you and your wife will find comfort in knowing you are living in His wonderful will. I am confidant that "whatever you do," you will "work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men." Col. 3:23
What were the results from the fan picks voting last week (Oct. 24)? Thanks.
We remember Mike Bowling from years ago when he sang with his family, Family Tradition. What a time we had. Mike is still a blessing. We enjoy hearing him sing with The Crabb Family every chance we get.
I heard the group "HisSong" at GMT in Pigeon Forge, Tn. this past Friday Night and they received a standing ovation. Their performance was outstanding as it always is. They are great and their new release "Finally Home" should be played on every radio station in the country. All christians should hear this message and be reminded that we all are striving to reach the same destination.
I personally think that Mike Bowling is a terrific singer and also a friendly person. I had the chance to see the Crabb Family and Mike Bowling 3 times this year. I love the song The Preacher.
I think Mike Bowling is an awesome singer and a true example of what a Christian person should be. I have known Mike for many years and his personality has always been the same, no matter where you see him. I think a lot of people who claim to be a Christian could follow Mike's example.
Thanks for your comments Larry. Keep the great music coming!
James Hales
Thank You Bob for including Still Blessed in your article! It is a very simple song with a great big powerful message! We are Blessed!!!
The Perrys
We just love Robbie, Dale and David! Robbie always smells like fresh cut flowers everytime we see her! Great singers!!!
Tracy and Lib
Mike Bowling is one of the greatest singers to come along in years to Gospel Music. It was an honor having him sing with our group. It also doesn't hurt that him and Tracy are cuzins'.
I appreciate the review. Thanks for all your help.
In regards to the info on the CD, it was a mess up on our part. It will be corrected on the next release. Thanks for the input.
Let us know if we can ever be of service to Southern Gospel News.

we love you parker and whish you well we will be praying for you and tour wife love mike,mary zachary and parker from oklahoma.
A great article about the Harmoneers, John. We didn't get to see this group in this part of the country often. I remember seeing them in person just one time in Monroe, Louisiana in the early 50's (52, I think). My father, Garland May, was part of a group that sponsored a concert there featuring the Harmoneers, Rangers Quartet, and a couple of other groups. The crowd was so great that they had to make emergency arrangements to use a second auditorium. I recall that when a quartet finished singing in the primary auditorium, they were rushed over to the other auditorium to sing to the overflow audience. A great memory of a great quartet!! Thanks so much for providing us with the info and the memories.
Anonymous,
It isn't nice to post cryptic messages anonymously.
i dont think he should have treated the hinsons like he did
We'll Be Praying For You
Just a quick note to let everyone know Mike Bowlin and the whole Crabb Clan have been a real blessing and encouragement to our group. We enjoy seeing them all when they are in town. Keep up the good work guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know this is a blow to all the Kingsmen?Carolina Boys fans. But his reasoning is certainly understandable. I have to applaud him on writing one of the most open, "Open Letters" I've ever seen. I pray God's blessings on Parker and his family.
Life will go on for the Carolina Boys. Shoot, I remember a day when I couldn't imagine the Kingsmen without Jim Hammil. LOL!!
Blessings,
Bob
Great Article, John. Growing up in the Atlanta area, the Harmoneers are a big part of my early SG memories. It was also good to remember "Happy" Edwards. Of course, I remember him mro with Leroy as the "Happy Two".
Thanks again, buddy, Great Job!!! You da man!!
Mike Bowling is by far one of my favorite soloists, and I am so glad that you did a feature on him. This boy can sing!! If I'm right, I don't think any SG soloist has accomplished two back to back #1 songs except for Mike. That is such an accomplishment, but he has also raised a beautiful daughter and has been a Godly example and friend to many. Most of all he has witness to many souls, which is the biggest accomplishment of all.
I was playing for a group in the Huntsville
area when New Ground was started. Robbie, Dale and David are what all
God's children should hope to be: sincere, friendly, and showing the world
that a Child of God has something every
one should want!!! God speed them on
their way to spread the "Good News"!
Hi John--Great info on a great group from out of the past! Never got to see this group in their Heydey",as they were bowing out as I was getting interested.
Gospel Dittos from out here in Texas. Thanks much for your efforts in researching the pioneers that have made such an impact on sooo many of us "olde timers". I, for one, could listening to their "tales" of what it must have been like back then for hours. Thanks again and "Keep 'um coming".
good afternnon john a great
source of information this is
and i appreciate it much. i
have all the lps and eps and i
enjoyed listening to them they
truly were a great quartet.
thank you wayne culton
I have tried to teach my daughter to pray but this thought has been on my mind as well over recent weeks. Did I teach her enough? Did I teach by example and not by 'do as I say, not as I do'?
I've been writting in a journal 'Blessings for my Daughter' that I plan to give her on her 15th birthday. In that I have again told her how much I love her, that I love her enough to pray for her and to try to lead her in the right way.
I've told her how important prayer, Bible study and trusting God is. While I've tried before and most days believe I've done a decent job, I don't ever want to become unaware of the dangers she faces each day!
Great job John. Thanks for the excellent education! Can't wait until the next article!
Thanks So Gospel News for your professionalism in keeping us up to date with gospel music and the wonderful people you have on staff! We are very joyful to our Lord for the works HE has done with and for Crossway. WE LOVE THOSE GUYS!! -- Jon Eric
Another first-rate article. Only recordings I have are when Strickland, Slater, Maples and Soward were with them. It's a very reserved sound. I believe the later version of the group with Keys and Hilton and was at the 1989 Gospel reunion.
Excellent articles. I have read them all so far, it is great information. Thanks for taking the time.

Amazing John, another way of proving you know plenty more than I do.
Thanks for another informative article. Keep them coming.

Parker,
I am diabled,but GOD has been good.My
prayer list is what i am able to do now.
You and your wife will be lifted up daily.
We are told to pray for one another w/o
ceasing:to rejoice and weep with one
another.Please tell your wife she gave up
her husband so GOD could minister to us:
it is only fair we give you back to her,till
sometime in HIS future will.God bless:)
a great thought that reminds all of us to do just that: teach and/or remind our children where the power of life is really held, in the hands of God. Prayers is the way to reach that power becuase he loves his children so very much
Thanks to Jerry at WBTG in Florance Ala.For playing the song Finally Home by HISSONG.Thats the best song I;ve heard in a long time.ALso looking forward to watching HISSONG on GMT that will be aired Saturday night .This group is a blessing every time I hear them.Keep up the work .ADAM,DENNIS, GARY,
Thanks for a great article. Sometimes it is difficult to agree on the exact dates for Gospel group changes. I dug up a late 1973 or early 1974 article from Good News, a publication of the Gospel Music Association. The article says Strevel was business manager of the group and one of the partners (with Tripp, Gates, Crowe and Fred Daniel who had retired to manage the group's office affairs). It said Strevel joined the group on June 27, 1947. In 1956, he left for 8 years but retained his partnership. The article says Crowe had been with the group 12 years which means he joined in 1961 or 62. Tripp joined the group on Jan. 11--four years ago, which would have been the beginning of 1969 or 1970. Gates joined the group in 1949 and remained with them except for a period of 18 months.
This group is outstanding. I have never heard such wonderful harmony in a female trio. They are truely blessded by God. I have heard them sing several times before. They live by what they sing. They are annointed of God when they sing as well. I hope that they continue in the ministry that God has placed them. I would love to hear more about them in the VERY near future.
May God Bless You,
Sarah
I had the joy of sharing a concert with this wonderful group of men. They not only had a great quartet, but were gracious to work with. It is my hope that many will come to know these men and their ministry, support them, enjoy their recordings, and come to their concerts. The Southern Gospel Music Industry is enhanced by the Standifers!

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHEN HISSONG WILL BE APPEARING ON GMT THIS WEEK? I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW.

Sounds like a couple of people are just upset because they didn't win! Get a life!
I have CD of HisSong and the cover says that "Big Mo" wrote Finally Home. He`s a great song writer. HisSong does a wonderful job on it.

Reading this article reminded me of the time I participated in the NQC talent search. A 10 year-old kid sang before me playing a ukelale(Ican't spell!), and scored higher than I did! As a friend of Bill Traylor, he told me to pisk an old song and do it well. As a high tenor, I sang an e flat that day - with power. Before the contest Kirk Talley was taking Jane Greene around and introducing her to the judges. Guess who won? I don't think I should have won, but this definitely was not a fair contest. By the way, within a year I was hired by a full-time national group, and traveled with them 4.5 years, singing around the country, as well as the Grand Ole Opry, the NQC, and numerous large events. Even received the "key to the city" and a senate proclamation in Missouri. Ain't God good?
What can u say about a guy who don't know how to play and sing the song "One Day At A Time" correctly....
Jonathan...we will miss u...
Mr. Unthank,
We have been watching Crossway (we call them "our boys") for about 3 years now and are not at all surprised at their new song making #1. These guys have about the tightest harmony in the music industry today. They have been such an inspiration to us and we thank God that He has brought them into our lives.
So proud of all of you.Hope to get you our way next year.I am a Sister to Marilyn Harrell,Mother of Jay Huddleston that met you couple weeks ago in Ga.Shirley Huddleston,Jay's wife,thought you were so good,and then when she found out you were from my Hometown,Ripley,Mississippi,she just had to talk to you.Keep up the good work.God Bless.
Angela,
No, this "God Made A Way" chorus starts out with, God made a way for me, beyond the crystal sea, he's coming back someday... Hope this helps.
Billy D
First of all I want to say how much I enjoy sogospelnews web site. It is so informative. I also have been listening to alot of His Songs music and I LOVE them. I hear there song Finally Home on the radio here in Knoxville, TN all the time. I would like to vote for them for the top 20. I`m not for sure how it works but I feel this song is going to go high on the charts. May God Bless the great work you guys are doing with southern gospel music.
In Christ

Is the song God made a way, have the chorus start with I go to the mountain and tell God my need? I heard the song on the radio but can't seem to find out the title or who sings it? I would appreciate any help you could provide thanks Angie

I LISTEN TO WBFC IN STANTON, KENTUCKY EVERYDAY. MY FAVORITE SONG THAT IS PLAYED ON THE RADIO IS FINALLY HOME BY HISSONG. IN THE DAY WE LIVE, THE MESSAGE IN THE SONG IS A TRUE ONE. PRAISE THE LORD WE HAVE A PLACE THAT IS WAITING US. THANK YOU HISSONG FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT IN THE SONG. PAUL ROBERTS
STANTON, KENTUCKY
Congratulations to HisSong for your song Finally Home. I feel this song will sore to the the very top of the charts. I saw these guys in Dalton, GA a couple wks ago and the church was absolutely packed out. There was not even standing room. I have never felt the presence of God so strong.
The song Finally Home means so much to me as I have loved ones who have gone on and I have the hope that I will be Finally Home. I hear Finally Home on WTTI in Dalton, GA everyday. The song blesses me every time I hear it.
God Bless
