Chuck Wagon Gang singing at Egypt CC on June 26

The world-renowned Chuck Wagon Gang will be singing at Egypt Christian Church, 4855 Knifley Road, Columbia, KY on Thursday, June 26 at 6:30pmCT.

This concert is free to all who wish to attend; however, a love offering will be received for the singers. Everyone is welcome according to the pastor, Paul Patton.


The Chuck Wagon Gang was named the number one gospel group of all time according to an SGM Radio poll. The results listed the accomplishments of the Gang over the past 75 years such as being history's best record selling gospel quartet (over 39 million sold on Columbia Records alone) and the fact that the Chuck Wagon Gang's style has remained consistent through all those years. Dad Carter would have it no other way. "Sing the old songs and sing 'em the way I taught you," was his sage advice.

The Gang has done just that. At any of their concerts, one will still hear "Echoes from the Burning Bush", "The Church In The Wildwood", "I'll Fly Away" and other familiar old songs that so identify gospel music's most recognizable style of music.

Today's group consists of Shaye Smith, Julie Hudson, Stan Hill, Jeremy Stephens, and Joe Rotton. The quartet still maintains the clear, uncluttered sound of pure music that so established them in the mid-30's. Four voices and one guitar and an acoustic bass is all it takes for this evergreen foursome to transport the listener to another time and another place where life was a bit simpler and time seemed to move to a slower pace.
