Artists
Several groups have made progressive Southern gospel their genre of choice. One of the most popular and outstanding of these are the Crabb Family. With origins that go back to the country gospel genre this group has now become one of the leaders in progressive Southern gospel and has even crossed over to contemporary Christian as well.
Another group that has made a huge impact on the progressive Southern gospel genre would be The Isaacs. This group is deeply rooted in Bluegrass gospel but over the last decade has erupted onto the progressive scene with such hits as "Friend To The End", "Stand Still", "Carry Me" and the a capella spiritual "I Have A Father Who Can".
Other artists in the progressive Southern gospel genre include The Talley Trio, The Jody Brown Indian Family, Keith Caldwell, The Hoppers, and The Martins.

Famous quotes containing the word artists:
“In dealings with scholars and artists we are apt to miscalculate in opposite directions: behind a remarkable scholar we sometimes, and not infrequently, find a mediocre man, and behind a mediocre artist, fairly often—a very remarkable man.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Immature artists imitate. Mature artists steal.”
—Lionel Trilling (1905–1975)
“When ... did the word “temperament” come into fashion with us?... whatever it stands for, it long since became a great social asset for women, and a great social excuse for men. Perhaps it came in when we discovered that artists were human beings.”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
