Biography

In 2005, a new sound emerged onto the gospel music scene. The musical objective was to form a group by filling each vocal position with the best in their field. The spiritual objective was for each of those individuals to have a sincere passion for people and for their relationship with God. Four individual vocalists formed a partnership known as “The LeFevre Quartet”. Just one year after forming, fans voted them the 2006 Horizon Group of the Year at the Singing News Fan Awards.

In 2007, they were voted “Breakthrough Artist Of The Year” at the SGN Awards just outside of Nashville, TN. Their hit song, “Big Mighty God” was nominated for Southern Gospel Song of The Year at the 2009 Dove Awards.

When you are a descendant of one of the founding names of southern gospel music, and you have 3 favorite baritone Singing News Fan Awards on your wall, along with a 7-year stretch with the award winning quartet Gold City, you have to be talking about Mike LeFevre. Mike started his career at an early age, when he began singing with his Uncle Alf. From there, he went on to sing with a classic group called the Singing Americans, then on to become a part of the popular group Gold City. After his time there, he helped form the group "Assurance" that later became "Brian Free & Assurance". Mike came off of the road for a while, but is back now with PRIORITY. Mike lives in Gainesville, GA, just outside of Atlanta with his wife Kathy and their children, Jordan and Keely.

There are many of today's top artists who have recorded a song written by David. His music has been recorded in country, pop, R&B, black gospel, and of course, southern gospel. Not many people in our field can say their music has been nominated for a Grammy, but David's has. He is not only an award winning songwriter, but also one of the best singers you will hear in any field of music. With a distinct sound and style all his own, and a heart for people, it's no wonder that David wins friends and fans everywhere. When he is not on the road, he runs Song Garden Music Group in Nashville, TN, a southern gospel label that is home to many of today's top artists. David lives on the outskirts of Nashville, TN with his wife, T'Juana and their children, son Austin, and daughters Grace and Katherine.

Gus Gaches (Tenor) - Click to close

If you follow gospel music that comes out of Nashville, a large percentage of it will have Gus' name somewhere in the credits. Look for it as Producer, Engineer, Background Vocalist or Songwriter and I can promise you won't have to look far to find him. He has been working on the production end of gospel music for many years, but what many didn't know was they were working on their recording with one of the best tenor singers that our industry has seen. If you like a tenor singer that can just stand there and sing the notes full voice, with style and taste that few have, then you will quickly become a fan of Gus Gaches. When he is not on the road with PRIORITY, Gus owns and operates The Vox Box Recording Studio in Goodlettsville, TN. He is married to Tamra and they have two children, Gus (aka lil' Gus), and daughter Kylie.
