SATURDAY NIGHT
SPECIAL CONCERT
Featuring:
LEGACY FIVE
www.legacyfive.com
Nashville, TN
Concert @ 7:00pm
Doors open @ 6:00pm

When the Legendary Cathedral
Quartet retired in December of 1999,
Scott Fowler and Roger Bennett
decided to continue the rich musical
tradition of Southern Gospel Quartet
singing. Legacy Five was organized
and had their official debut in January
2000 in Atlanta, Georgia. Since that
day, they have made a major mark on
the Southern Gospel Music world.
Immediately
audiences responded
overwhelmingly to their four-part
harmony and their ability to effectively
communicate the message of Christ.
Since
the quartet’s formation, they
have established and maintained a firm
place at the top of Christian music.

Legacy Five has enjoyed more success
in their short career than many groups
experience in decades. In their first ten
years, The Singing News Magazine,
Southern Gospel music’s leading fan
and trade publication, has nominated
Legacy Five for some 75 Singing
News fan awards. Year after year they
are recognized as one of Gospel music’
s favorite southern gospel groups.

Legacy Five has been featured on
numerous video tapings of the Gaither
and friends Homecoming Video series,
which has sold
multiple millions of
copies worldwide. They have also
appeared on In Touch, with Dr. Charles
Stanley, as well as In Touch Ministries’
sponsored cruises.

The rich four and five part harmony
that Legacy Five has become noted for
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
