Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version Share this

 November 20, 2011 (El Cajon) –The public is invited to attend a gospel music concert tonight by the award-winning Legacy Five quartet, one of the most-famed Christian music groups in America. The concert will be held on Sunday, November 20 at 6 p.m. in the El Cajon Wesleyan Church, 1500 East Lexington Avenue in El Cajon. 

 

When the Legendary Cathedral Quartet retired in December of 1999, two of the original members decided to continue the rich musical tradition of Southern Gospel Quartet singing. Legacy Five was organized and their official debut took place in Atlanta, Georgia, January 2000. Since that day, the group has made a major mark on the Southern Gospel Music world, and immediately audiences responded overwhelmingly to the four-part harmony.  Since the quartet's formation, it has established and maintained a firm place at the top of Christian music.

The rich four and five part harmony that Legacy Five has become noted are the result of a masterful weaving together of five unique and versatile talents. Glenn Dustin sings the bass, Scott Howard sings the baritone, Scott Fowler sings the Lead, Gus Gaches sings the tenor and Trey Ivey is the group’s pianist.

Currently touring the nation since 1999, the group has accumulated every award possible and an ever growing fan base; all with only a couple of personnel changes.Legacy Five has received numerous accolades, including the 2004 and 2008 Singing News Fan Awards honor of Favorite Traditional Male Quartet. Their first decade has been marked with countless Singing News Fan Awards as well as several Dove Award nominations.

Group members attribute their success to the changing face of gospel music and their willingness to adapt to it. As a result, the group has won numerous awards. Some 130 times a year, Legacy Five presents Gospel music in a way that has endeared them to audiences all across the United States and Canada.

The doors open at 5 p.m. for the 6 p.m. concert, which is open-seating. Suggested donation is an offering of $10/person and $25/family. There will be a presentation by im2moro, a group of young adults who will share their passion for our country.

Im2moro is a young adult group that has realized if we do not speak up today, we will be living in a very different America tomorrow.  For information visit http://www.im2moro.com or phone: 619.322.0670.
