The LeFevre Quartet Releases Debut Recording with Song Garden Music Group

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Song Garden Music Group is proud to announce the release of the LeFevre Quartet’s debut recording for the label – Legacy. The new album was produced by Song Garden Music Group’s Nick Bruno and Robbie Hiner. Legacy was released at the National Quartet Convention in Louisville, Kentucky this past September.

Legacy features original songs written by some of the industry’s top songwriters including Daryl Williams, John Darin Rowsey, Dianne Wilkinson, Dwight Liles, Twila McBride-LaBar, Gina Vera, Cindi Ballard, Marty Funderburk, and many more. The album also features two original songs written by group member David Staton.

The debut single, titled “I Love Him So,” is a LeFevre original, written by Alf LeFevre back in the 1950’s. The song is a tribute to the LeFevre name and features a short interlude of the original track recorded by Rex Nelon.

"The song was actually written by my Uncle Alf LeFevre back in the 50's. On the CD, we start the song out with a short clip of the original LeFevre cut before our arrangement comes in. I think it is a wonderful tribute to The LeFevres, and it sure is good to hear Rex Nelon's voice come over those speakers", says Mike LeFevre. “This group knows how to put their own fingerprint on a song while still paying tribute to their roots!”

A preview of the new single will be showcased on The Gospel Greats hosted by Paul Heil this weekend, September 29, 2005.

Ivan Parker also makes a special guest appearance on the album on “Seek the Kingdom,” a song written by acclaimed songwriters Marty Funderburk and Cindi Ballard.

Legacy is being distributed nationally by Song Garden Music Group, one of Southern Gospel’s leading record labels.

Legacy comes on the heels of the group’s debut on the Southern Gospel scene this year. The group consists of popular vocalist Mike LeFevre, as well as Stephen Sigmon, David Staton, Stacy Bragg, Mike Westbrooks, and Jordan LeFevre.

Reviews of Legacy will appear in major media publications in the coming months. A current review of the album can be found at SGMusicForum.com.
