Almost Statesmen, Part 2: An Interview with Ben Harris

ByDaniel J. Mount April 11, 2011January 3, 2019

The glory days of the Statesmen are now the stuff of legend. We play back the voices of Big Chief, Jake, Rosie, Denver, Doy, and Hovie on old LPs, and watch the few grainy black-and-white video clips that have survived on YouTube. Yet to this day, there are men still alive who had to turn down…

One Scarred Hand: The Other Half of the Story

ByDaniel J. Mount February 11, 2011January 3, 2019

In 2007, we posted an unforgettable interview with Kyla Rowland. The most powerful moment in a conversation full of such moments was when she shared the story of how her son’s running away from home prompted her to write “One Scarred Hand.” On Tuesday, I had the opportunity to hear the other half of the…

I had the opportunity to interview Roger Talley before a Talley Trio concert last fall. One thing led to another, and it took this long to get it up. But it’s worth the wait.

An Interview with Dianne Wilkinson

ByDaniel J. Mount December 1, 2009January 3, 2019

I had made plans to interview Dianne Wilkinson on Tuesday night of this year’s National Quartet Convention. So we would have plenty of time, we arranged to meet at the Greater Vision booth about an hour before the last group walked off the mainstage for the night. A few minutes before the scheduled time, I…

An Interview with Kim Collingsworth

ByDaniel J. Mount October 2, 2009January 3, 2019

I had the opportunity to talk with one of Southern Gospel’s best-loved pianists and altos, Kim Collingsworth, before a recent Collingsworth family concert. Since I interviewed her husband Phil earlier this year (read that interview here), I tried to avoid covering the same ground in this conversation. DJM: Even though I know you tell your…

ByDaniel J. Mount January 7, 2009January 3, 2019

I recently had the opportunity to interview Wes Hampton, the tenor for the Gaither Vocal Band. I’d like to offer a special word of thanks to fellow blogger Wes Burke. When he posted a brief interview with Wes Hampton a couple months back, it planted a seed in my mind—”Hey, it just might be possible…

Recently, I had the chance to interview Gary Casto, lead singer and manager for Tribute Quartet. DJM: Could you tell us a little bit about yourself?
