-----------April 11, 2005George Younce Biography George Wilson Younce(Feb. 22, 1930 – Apr. 11, 2005) George Younce was a native of Lenoir, North Carolina. He studied shape note singing and performed with the Spiritualaires when he was still a teenager. He sang with several groups over the next 20 years including the Watchmen, the Homeland Harmony Quartet, the Weatherfords, the Florida Boys, and the Blue Ridge Quartet. In 1964, he joined what was then called the Cathedral Trio, so named after Rex Humbard’s Cathedral Of Tomorrow in Akron, OH where the group was based. With the addition of Younce’s bass voice, they became the Cathedral Quartet. For the next 35 years, Younce and Glen Payne moved the Cathedrals to the top ranks of Southern Gospel. By the 1990s, the Cathedrals were universally acclaimed by fans and the Southern Gospel industry. A farewell tour prompted by Younce’s gradually declining health and the death of Glen Payne ended the Cathedrals’ run in 1999. In 2000, Younce formed the Old Friends Quartet with his son-in-law Ernie Haase, the legendary Jake Hess, and Wesley Pritchard. This group released two recordings and appeared on limited dates until Hess’ death in 2004. Younce and the Cathedrals are members of the GMA Hall Of Fame, and Younce was inducted into the SGMA Hall Of Fame in 1998. Most remembered for his singing and mastery as a concert emcee, Younce also wrote several gospel songs including “Yesterday.” See also: Cathedrals Biography, Cathedrals Discography, and Cathedrals Members Labels: biography posted by David Bruce Murray @ 12:12:00 PM
