Legacy Five is a southern gospel quartet founded by former Cathedral Quartet members Roger Bennett and Scott Fowler after the owners of the Cathedral Quartet, Glen Payne and George Younce, decided to retire in 1999.〔 〕 Group members attribute their success to the changing face of gospel music and their willingness to adapt to it.〔 As a result, the group has won numerous awards. The group is owned by Scott Fowler. ==Members== Legacy Five's very first lineup consisted of tenor Josh Cobb, lead Scott Fowler, baritone Scott Howard, bass Glenn Dustin, and pianist Roger Bennett. Bennett supplied a fifth vocal part in some songs, but when he sang, it was mainly for verses. The group enjoyed great success with their first album release, ''Strong In The Strength''. The group's first Top 10 hit, ''I Stand Redeemed'', featured young tenor Josh Cobb. Cobb won the Horizon Individual award at NQC 2000, but he resigned from the group two days later. The group has experienced minimal turnover in membership, except for the tenor position. Josh Cobb left in 2000 and was replaced by Tony Jarman, who stayed with the group until 2004. Frank Seamans was with the group from 2004 to 2009. Tim Parton, a pianist who produced a number of the group's albums, joined the group on the road in October 2006 as a substitute for the ill Bennett. Following Bennett's death on March 17, 2007,〔 from complications related to leukemia, Parton's "interim" tag was removed, as the group officially named him the regular pianist. In 2009, Frank Seamans announced that he was leaving due to his son's health issues. His replacement was Gus Gaches, who previously sang with groups such as Calvary Construction Company, Elvis' Imperials, and most recently, The LeFevre Quartet. In 2011, pianist Tim Parton left, and was replaced by Trey Ivey. On July 12, 2012 bass singer Glenn Dustin resigned, and was replaced by Matt Fouch from Soul'd Out Quartet. On August 26, 2015 Legacy Five announced tenor singer Gus Gaches' departure due to several allergies and vocal fatigue. On October 8, Josh Feemster, formerly of Mercy's Mark, was named the new tenor for Legacy Five and would begin his role in early November. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Legacy Five」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
