About
Who We Are
Heaven's Echoes, a Bluegrass Gospel group from the Anderson, South Carolina area, began singing in 1985. Over the past 22 years, the group has taken its music into nine states and has
played to a wide variety of audiences.
The group first began singing in churches for homecomings and worship services. Church singings and Gospel concerts still play a role in keeping them busy. In 1990, the November-December issue of Precious Memories Journal of Gospel Music featured a cover story article on Heaven's Echoes. In October 1994, the group received an invitation from music legend Governor Jimmie Davis to sing at a very special church service - homecoming at the Jimmie Davis Tabernacle in Quitman, Louisiana.
What We Do
Heaven's Echoes started including Bluegrass festivals in their schedule in 1988. Since that time, they have performed at some of the largest Bluegrass festivals in the Southeast. The group has worked such events as the Withlacoochie Bluegrass Festival in Florida and Norman Adams' New Years Bluegrass Festival in Jekyll Island, Georgia. Heaven's Echoes has performed at the Lewis Family Homecoming Bluegrass Festival in Lincolnton, Georgia for twelve consecutive years and the Ralph Stanley Memorial Bluegrass Festival for three years.
Heaven's Echoes has made nine recordings to date. Most of these recordings contain songs written by members of the group. Their music has been played on radio stations throughout the South and featured on syndicated Bluegrass Gospel programs as well. The group even hosted its own radio program on a local radio station for three years. Their last recording, "Still Going" was chosen as one of the top ten Bluegrass Gospel discs of 2004 by WNCW 88.7 fm radio station in Spindale, North Carolina.
No matter whether they are singing in a church, auditorium or festival, Heaven's Echoes' music offers something for everyone. The band has a unique ability to communicate with their audience through a variety of song material and a touch of humor. Their close harmony combines with strong, solid instrumentation to create a sound that is truly their own.
