ROYAL CITY - The Blackwood Legacy Quartet, direct from Nashville, will present a special concert at Royal City's Church of the Nazarene on March 30.

Boasting an unbroken lineage to the Dove and Grammy-award winning Blackwood Brothers, the Mansion Records artists link the best of Southern Gospel's traditional sound with today's newer Country gospel and worship music.

The Blackwood Legacy Quartet will be in concert on Sunday, March 30, at 6 p.m., at Royal City Church of the Nazarene. Admission will be free, but a free will offering is suggested.

The Blackwood Legacy Quartet has an all-star line-up. Lead singer Daniel Childs is the great grandson of Blackwood Brothers founding father, Roy Blackwood.

Spokane native Luke Yates sings baritone with the group and is also an award-winning pianist. Tenor Paul Secord was formerly a featured singer for Disney World.

Group owner and bass singer Rick Price was a protégée of the late Cecil Blackwood. He began his 35-year career singing with the Blackwood Brothers in 1977, and was eventually inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame with the legendary group.

Performing since 2001, The Blackwood Legacy Quartet was signed to Mansion Records in 2010, and continues the grand tradition of gospel music, performing nearly 250 dates annually nationwide.

Royal City Church of the Nazarene is located at 200 Calla Loop NW. For more information you can call the church at 509-346-2630, visit the group's website at TheBlackwoodLegacy.com, or find the quartet on Facebook.
