… right about now I’d be considering following in the steps of the Singing Americans and the Anchormen, both groups that had a non-touring owner/manager. Think about all the “free agents” in Southern Gospel right now.
- Tenor: Dallas Rogers [EDIT:] As per Coomer Cove’s suggestion, if I could get Jay Parrack, that would actually be my #1 pick. I’d love to hear how he’d fit with the other names I have listed.
- Lead: Josh Feemster / Josh Garner
- Baritone: Andrew King
- Bass: Christian Davis / Gene McDonald
- Pianist: Andrew Ishee / Scott McDowell / Nick Succi
- Bass Guitarist: Grant Barker
I put my #1 picks first in that list. There is enough talent out there (and presumably looking for a group) to put together one of the best groups in Southern Gospel.
Of course, if I was truly rich, I would bring either Lari Goss or Wayne Haun on board to produce the project. I’d contact Dianne Wilkinson, Kyla Rowland, Chris Binion, Sandy Knight, Joseph Habedank, and today’s other great songwriters for product. I’d hire the Prague Philharmonic for orchestrations. And, of course, I’d have to put several grand into advertising and promotion.

Of course, I’m not rich. But it was fun to dream!
