40 yo memories
About 40 years ago I started attending a Church in my town.
During the 1st service I attended the Pastors 16yo son along with his younger Brother and Sister got up on the stage and sang a few songs, the oldest Gus played the piano and sang with the most amazing tenor voice I had ever heard, his sister about 12yo sang harmonies and I think the choruses, and that girl could belt out a song like a seasoned pro, the Brother Charles played drums, and they performed a few original songs that Gus had written.
It turned out they had formed a band named "Steadfast" and I had the pleasure of seeing them perform numerous times.
A few years later their Father took a job Pastoring in another state and I lost track of them for awhile. When I finally was able to find them again thanks to something called the Internet I found Gus was starting to live his dream as a Christian performer and very successful, he was a member of several groups through the years, including the "Imperials" and worked with very famous people in the music industry.
Tonight I was able to see his current group "Tribute Quartet" at a concert here in Modesto, he has been a part of over 1000 albums, and received a Grammy award.
It's pretty amazing to see a 16yo kid and just know he was going to accomplish some amazing things, and then see them 40 years later living out their dreams.
If you get a chance to listen to Gus Gaches and Tribute Quartet I highly recommend them.
