One of the most successful songwriters in all of Christian music, Bill Gaither was an original member of the renowned gospel music act the Gaither Trio (comprised of Gaither, his brother Danny, and sister Mary Ann). Bill's wife, Gloria, would go on to replace Mary Ann in the group, and the trio was eventually inducted into the Gospel Music Association Hall of Fame in 1999. In addition to recording with the trio, Bill and Gloria recorded as a duo and as part of the Gaither Vocal Band. Gaither has been an extremely prolific composer of new gospel material, and has published more than 500 songs, including many that have become contemporary standards in the genre. His popular television program, The Gaither Gospel Hour, and a series of videos documenting many of the legends of southern gospel have led to the creative rebirth of what had been a declining genre of music. In all, Gaither has recorded over 40 albums, won five Grammy Awards, numerous Dove Awards, and has been the Gospel Music Association's songwriter of the year eight times. Gaither and his wife Gloria continue to live just miles from the farm in Alexandria, Indiana, where Gaither was born and raised. ~ Greg Prato & Steve Leggett, Rovi

Their music truly brings tears to my eyes every time I hear them, out of beautiful and joyous christian music, and my dear mother, before she passed away was a big fan. I think of her every time I play any christian songs played by any of these favorites! Love them!! They keep me singing and bring much happiness and closeness of God through all my bad times, they make it bearable. Thank you all!

Your Music is one of the biggest inspirations in my life right now. I relate to most of your material in one way or another. It helps to know others have experienced the challenges of following the Lord. Thank you for providing the message I need to hear at just the right time the Lord knows I need it.

Many thanks to Pandora for making available the music of the Gaither Group along with that of other contemporary gospel artists. Your selections are the best of this genre -- frequently of the foot-stompin g quality, spirited and even(with me,at least)evocat i v e of goose bumps. Example: Bill and Gloria Gaither's, Because He Lives. HALLELUIA!

Back in 1955 when I was 3 months old at my uncle's little country church JD Sumner held me in his arms and sang to me and I have loved gospel music and Bass singers ever since. It gets in your soul and no matter where you are in life it grabs you and brings you back to the throne.

My soul rejoices when I hear gospel music. I am impressed with the harmonies so much that I feel a terrible loss when I hear other music. Discovering that I can hear gospel music when I'm working on the computer has been a true blessing. It's sorta like a taste of what I imagine it will be like in Heaven for us (except for the writter below who says they are not a Christian but they like the music - what will eternity be like for them?

Bill and Gloria have been special to me and my family for years. My four daughters and I and my husband began singing when the girls were in high school. Our first song was "Worthy" They have been so faithful to Gods cause. Also, Bill kissed me on the cheek in Houston, when concert was over.

If it were not for Bill & Gloria Gaither's music I would be lost in sin today because it headed me in the right direction to give my heart to God in high school!! It motivates me to praise God on a higher level.

We need more singers like the Gaithers today that will and are not ashamed to sing the Good Gospel Music and not the music that is suppose to be gospel music and you can almost dance to it.

I thank God for people like the Gaithers. God has used them in a wonderful way. Thank God they heeded His plan for their lives. I was born and raised in the generation of Southern gospel music, so I'm especially grateful for the Gaithers keeping it alive and well. Their DVDs have introduced me to the more current gospel music sound, and has helped me to slowly adjust to the newer music. My goal is to eventually own all of the DVDs & CDs. Thanks Bill & Gloria!

What can be added that hasn't already been said about the anointed singing of Bill and Gloria Gaither. How God has used them to write, sing, & unite other singers with them. Bless them for their usefulness in His Kingdom now and forever more.
