The name Palmetto State Quartet signifies class and
integrity. The group is known by the rich blend of
classic voices that define it as a living legacy.
In 1946, the quartet garnered its unique name from the
Palmetto tree in South Carolina where the group
originated. Since that time, PSQ has provided its
audience with a stylistic presentation and
an enriching blend of vintage quartet music. Over
|
|
the past six decades, many talented, gifted singers and
musician have come and gone but always consistent is the
rich classy sound that has propelled them to the
forefront. This quartet appreciates the value of
Christian entertainment but realizes their primary focus
is of a divine nature. They have found their
mission statement to be " meeting people at their point
of need". Simply put, that at every concert, the
group believes that with God's anointing, one word or
one song might change a life forever. The group is
humbled and honored to share in that calling.
When you experience the ministry of PSQ, their
presentation is dynamic and exciting, leaving the
audience entertained and captivated. The group
certainly embraces the value of entertainment but
understands that their primary focus is of a God
breathed mission. |

With
a rich history like that of the Palmetto State Quartet it is important
that the story be recorded for future generations of Southern Gospel Music
fans. So much is known about the origin and career of groups such as the
Statesmen and Blackwood Brothers that it would seem they were the only
groups on the road during their heyday. In contrast, even |
|
though they were around during this same
era, very little is publicly known about the history of
the Palmetto State Quartet. Very few of PSQ's
oldest fans could tell you the names of the original
members of the group. This is mainly due to the
fact that the group was formed so long ago that those
who followed the group in those days are either not able to attend concerts or
have passed on.
Keeping this in mind we began
this series of history lessons with
a complete
overview of The Palmetto State Quartet, from it's inception through
all of the personnel changes, to bring you up to date with the modern day
group. We'll continue this monthly series with a biographical sketch of
each individual who has been a member of The Palmetto State Quartet. You'll learn where they came from as well as where they are today and what
major contributions they've made to the Palmetto State Quartet and
Southern Gospel Music along the way. |
