Not long after Brady Jones joined The Kingsmen Quartet, he started dreaming of bringing something big to his hometown.

And they will be in concert Friday night, Dec. 13 at the Glasgow (Ky.) High School auditorium in a concert to benefit the school’s Marching Scottie Band. It will be the group’s second benefit concert for the band. Continue reading “Having fun while praising God”→
