Just in case you don't follow my husband on social media, he sings baritone for a southern gospel group called Servants Heart Quartet. I have filled in occasionally singing the alto/tenor part. Last week their tenor singer resigned. The guys asked me to fill in for them until they can find another tenor. Soooooooo................
I have always loved singing. Growing up, that was my favorite part of church. I played the flute and I sang - not at the same time of course :O). Back then, I sang soprano, but really, as I have gotten older, alto is more my range. Rhonda played the guitar and we sang growing up. I also have always sang in the choir at church, and a solo or duet occasionally, but I have never really considered myself a singer. Actually, I can't stand to hear my own voice, but it blends well with the guys, and heaven knows that I already know the songs from attending most all of their concerts over the past 8 years.
I have filled in quite a few times, so I am not quite so nervous anymore and it is getting easier. What I do know is that I love my husband and I want to support whatever he is doing. If that means getting out of my comfort zone to help him, then that is what I will do. Besides that, the guys are all funny and silly and a joy to be around. There have been a few people that said SHQ sure does look better with a girl singing.........ha!!!! And a couple people have compared my sound to Vestal Goodman of the Happy Goodmans. Really BIG HA!!!!
So, if you see a post on Facebook about SHQ singing...........DON"T LAUGH!!!!!
