So what more can you do when you possess a mammoth legacy such as that of the Kingsmen? The answer…keep singing and ministering the gospel, and keep releasing music with lyrics relevant to the lives of the listeners. The same drive and work ethic that brought the Kingsmen to incredible heights more than a half century ago, secures the Kingsmen’s continued place among the top male quartets in Christian music today.

The year was 1956, when a group of brothers in western NC joined together in forming the Kingsmen Quartet. This team of young men likely had no idea what they were beginning. By the early 1970s, the Kingsmen had ascended to the peak of the gospel music industry with their Dove Award-winning record, Big and Live. Since then, the momentum has never stopped. Just since 2015, the quartet has placed six more songs atop the southern gospel radio charts, received two more GMA Dove Award nominations, as well as a #1 album on the Billboard Chart.
