Dixie Melody Boys

The Dixie Melody Boys, a Southern Gospel quartet from Kinston, North Carolina, formed in 1961. The group gained regional success and transitioned to full-time status after performing at the National Quartet Convention in 1971. Their breakthrough came with the 1978 album Sending Up Some Boards, followed by the chart-topping single "Antioch Church Choir" in 1982, which became their signature song. In the mid-1980s, the group experimented with a full on-stage band and incorporated country, pop, and soft rock sounds but returned to their traditional Southern Gospel quartet style in 1987. Throughout their career, the group released notable albums such as No Compromise (1993), 100% Pure Southern Gospel (1997), and Have You Heard (2013). The Dixie Melody Boys notably won Favorite Male Quartet and Favorite Bass Singer at the Southern Gospel Music Fan Awards in 2013.
