It’s my desire that my longtime fans will wholeheartedly embrace these new songs, and I’m also looking forward to making many more friends as we share this music with an even broader audience."
“Guy played an unforgettable role in the Gaither Vocal Band’s award-winning history," said Barry Jennings, president, Gaither Music Group.
