The Primitive Quartet and Mountain Home Music Company’s Through The Years series has been bringing the beloved gospel group’s music to new generations of listeners through streaming services and digital sales platforms for the first time. These releases continue the group’s half-century legacy as a bluegrass gospel artist — one that has now performed their last live show. The Quartet wrapped up their full time touring on May 20, with one final concert.

Common Kings have released their latest single “Hideaway”, the second song to drop from their highly anticipated sophomore album ‘CELEBRATION’.  The new record is due out on August 25th, 2023, on Island Empire/Mensch House Records.
