Combining 21st century ideas with the timeless quality of great quartets from the 1950s, Grammy-nominated Ernie Haase & Signature Sound (EHSS) has broken the traditional mold of gospel quartets. Their unconventional approach to communicating the Good News with groundbreaking originality has blazed a trail that will go down in gospel music history.

The group's founder and leader, Ernie Haase, was a long-time member of the famous Cathedral Quartet, headed by the late George Younce. Ernie's roots are deeply planted in the rich legacy of music that is both meaningful and thoroughly entertaining. After the Cathedrals bid farewell to their five-decade run in the music industry, Ernie's passion for gospel music led him to a new beginning.

In 2003, he gathered a group of like-minded men who share his love for God, great harmonies, time-honored songs and energetic performances... and together they have become one of the most influential forces in southern gospel music. Inspired by their heroes, loved by their audiences and blessed by the Lord beyond their dreams, Ernie (tenor), Devin McGlamery (lead), Doug Anderson (baritone) and Paul Harkey (bass) perform more than 100 solo shows yearly in North America and abroad.

EHSS' first DVD release soared to the top of Billboard Magazine's Music Video Chart and simultaneously topped the Contemporary Christian Music Video Chart. That same DVD achieved Gold sales status, and the project's accompanying audio release topped both the CCM and Southern Gospel Audio Charts simultaneously at No. 1.

In 2008, Ernie Haase & Signature Sound won Gospel Music Association Dove Awards for Southern Gospel Recorded Song of the Year and Southern Gospel Album of the Year for "Get Away Jordan." The "Jordan" album has also been certified Gold. In 2009, they won another Southern Gospel Recorded Song of the Year Dove Award for "Reason Enough" from their "Dream On" album.

Released in the fall of 2008, the "Dream On" DVD debuted at No. 1 on the Contemporary Christian Music Video Chart and at No. 3 on the Billboard Music Video Chart. The "Dream On" CD launched at No. 1 on the Southern Gospel Music Chart. "Dream On" was nominated for a 2010 Grammy in the category of "Best Southern, Country or Bluegrass Gospel Album."

EHSS' success continues with each new release, but perhaps their most rewarding achievement is the new generation of gospel music lovers emerging across the globe. The group's contagious energy spreads through entertaining performances packed with truth and overflowing with a joyful spirit of gratitude... bringing listeners around the world their refreshing approach to gospel classics and new material that is uniquely Signature Sound.


It’s truly a family affair when The Browns hit the stage with their gospel music. The musical stylings of Shelly, Michaela, Adam, and Andrew exude excitement on the stage and offer a life-changing experience to all who hear them. The Browns deliver the powerful message of the gospel through word and song that engage audiences of all ages.

The Browns have been touring across the United States since the group began its full-time ministry thirteen years ago. The heralded group began on the local and state level and has expanded and grown into a national touring group.

This year The Browns received the prestigious honor of Top 10 Mixed Group of the Year for the fourth year in a row. “ This honor is very rewarding coming from the fans and knowing that we’ve touched their hearts in some way.” Previously The Browns had been awarded the Top Horizon Group of the Year for 3 consecutive years.

The group has just finished their newest recording, “Heritage Hymns Volume 2?. The Browns have recently been in Nashville writing songs for their new main line recording due for release in August. The newest single off their album, “Now”, written by Andrew, “A Beautiful Day”, has just climbed to #21 on the national radio charts and #4 on the Weekly Chart.

Even when they’re not on stage or on tour, the Browns manage to stay plenty busy on their farm property west of LeMars, Iowa, which has served to become somewhat of haven for the family away from the road. Adam says, “We enjoy life at home. There’s just something about being in the country. I’ve always enjoyed it”. Andrew, the self-proclaimed life of the party, said touring on the road can get a little crazy, but he’s been able to put things into perspective. “I’m thankful for what I’m doing,” he said. “I think it’s a special thing that we do.” To add to the family experience, Shelly’s husband Keith is the chief bus driver and sound technician. “Because we know we’re called, it’s been worth it all. God has opened the doors and there are adventures and blessings behind each one.”

From singing over 30 shows at the Americana Theatre in Branson, MO, to Dollywood Theme park stages, to singing on over 10 Royal Carribean and Carnival cruise ships this award winning family will inspire you with their close-knit family harmony and talent. The Browns love what they do, love each other, and the audiences to whom they sing!


Beyond our plans, beyond our own abilities, beyond our failures, beyond our own God-given talents, above and beyond anything we could ask or even imagine. God has a plan for each of us, to rise above the ashes and to live powerfully for Him. When three different people come from three completely different parts of the United States and share the same strong desire and sincere call to worship and minister, then those plans, which are beyond our own, begin to come to fruition.Beyond our plans, beyond our own abilities, beyond our failures, beyond our own God-given talents, above and beyond anything we could ask or even imagine. God has a plan for each of us, to rise above the ashes and to live powerfully for Him.

When three different people come from three completely different parts of the United States and share the same strong desire and sincere call to worship and minister, then those plans, which are beyond our own, begin to come to fruition.

The group is made up of Anthony Facello, Kellan Monroe and Dustin Doyle. Each young man in the group brings an exuberant love, respect, and admiration for Christian music. Their lives are dedicated to reaching out with a fresh new zeal and passion for those who desire a closer relationship with the Lord.  Their musical style and diversity is rooted in Gospel music with tight harmonies and a rich blend. Their talent opens the door for them to convey several styles and genres of music with one common denominator: it is music that speaks to the heart of the listener. It is music for the church.

“Our vision is big,” continued Anthony. “We see Beyond the Ashes blending musical styles and offering something for everyone. We want to constantly be evolving and doing new things. You can never limit God. I remember the first time we took the stage as Beyond the Ashes. I could not believe how God orchestrated every aspect of this group. It’s kind of funny how some people may think when you become a Christian the road gets easier. It’s not true. The devil has thrown so many things in our path, but we’ve come out even greater men of God because of it. It’s the great commission that remains the driving force behind what we are called to do. I love people and I am so excited to be getting out there again to reveal our passion in an even more marvelous way to the people for the cause of Christ.”

So many people carry the ashes of their failures in their “spiritual pockets.” Beyond The Ashes brings music that empties those pockets and fills them up with God’s love. Love is the greatest commandment. It lifts the downtrodden, puts the broken back together, and most especially restores hope. Love is the motivation behind the ministry of this powerful group. Its scope reaches beyond talent, beyond human ambition, and into the heart of everyone who hears them.


“Church has always been my life” says Wesley, “I grew up in church.” His father Ken and mother Lillian are the founding pastors of Fayetteville Community Church. Wesley says, “I was singing in revival meetings with my Dad when I was two years old.”

Wesley and his wife Teresa have been working in the church music ministry for 28 years. During this time, he has been the Worship leader and choir director at Fayetteville Community Church. In June of 2009, Wesley was installed as Senior Pastor. He says, “I feel like all the years working with musicians and singers really helped prepare me for pastoring the church. It is the scariest thing I have ever done… the responsibility is enormous. Every time I step in the pulpit I wonder if someone is hearing the gospel for the last time and I want to get it into their heart what the Lord would have me to say.”

You will probably recognize Wesley Pritchard mostly for his years of work on the Gaither Homecoming Video Series. Since 1995, Wesley has been an integral part of them, singing, producing, playing bass, and as he says, “Whatever Mr. Gaither needs.” He also has sung with Old Friends Quartet with Jake Hess, George Younce, and Ernie Haase, The Gaither Vocal Band, Ernie Haase and Signature Sound, and as he calls it, has been a “stunt singer,” filling in for The Hoppers, The Booth Brothers, The Martins, and many more groups.

“Since I can remember, I have always been involved with Gospel music,” Wesley says. He has engineered sound at the National Quartet Convention, the Canadian Gospel Music Festival, and The Great Western Fan Festival in California. He has a broad knowledge of the intricacies of harmonies and the blend of, as he says, “good ole’ Gospel music”.

Wesley is a two time Dove Award winner. He won for producing Southern Gospel album of the year “Encore” for Old Friends Quartet and for producing the Spanish Language album of the year “Te Amo Dios”.

For over 25 years, Wesley has worked with Mill West Recording Studios in Fayetteville, North Carolina. There he has produced and recorded hundreds of Gospel projects. He continues to work producing projects, most recently for The Dixie Melody Boys, Lordsong, The Sisters, Driven, The Anchormen, and many regional groups.

Wesley lives in Fayetteville, North Carolina with his wife of over 30 years Teresa, their two married children Erica and Kramer, and the love of their lives – four grandchildren – Lilly, Abby, Kanen, Amelia.
