THE KINGSMEN QUARTET LIVE AT FIRST GRACE CHURCH

Experience America's Quartet, The Kingsmen, at First Grace of Dayton OH!

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. Since those early days, 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.  The Kingsmen are truly AMERICA’S QUARTET!
More than seven decades of continued success has granted the Kingsmen some of Christian music’s most prestigious achievements. In 2000 they were inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame, the Christian Music Hall of Fame in 2008, and nine of the quartet’s prestigious alumni are members of the Southern Gospel Music Hall of Fame. They have performed at the White House, and the opening ceremony of the World’s Fair in Knoxville, TN with President Ronald Reagan. The Kingsmen was also the first group to film and record a live performance at the famous Grand Ole Opry in Nashville in 1986.  They have received more than 50 group and individual Singing News Fan Awards, including Favorite Group, Favorite Male Quartet, as well as both Favorite Song and Album for their signature performance, “Wish You Were Here”.  
After nearly six decades anchoring the quartet as their award-winning bass vocalist, Ray Dean Reese, now in his 80s, cheers the next generation of this iconic quartet from the sidelines…. Reese shares, “Our music has a message, the message of Christ. Every night we work to bring His message to our audience. Our goal is to see people saved through Jesus Christ whether we're singing indoors, outdoors, in an auditorium, in a church or in studio recordings.”   Joining Reese are his son and road manager Brandon Reese.  Carrying the Kingsmen’s legacy to this new generation are the quartet’s youngest stage team in more than forty years… baritone & emcee Alan Kendall, tenor Thomas Nalley, lead Cole Watson, and bass/pianist Brady Jones.
