Nashville, TN – Over the past five decades, it’s safe to say The Perrys have enjoyed quite an amazing journey. Their walk has been filled with many mountaintop experiences, as well as difficult valleys. The path hasn’t always been easy, but charter member Libbi Perry Stuffle and The Perrys are evidence that, along the journey, we make discoveries about ourselves and experience God’s faithfulness on the long, long road.
Their brand new Stowtown Records release, Long, Long Road, is a testament of God’s goodness and takes listeners to a place of inspiration and encouragement. The recording reunites Libbi, her son Jared and talented vocalists Jason Gordon and Dayton Gay with producer and longtime friend Wayne Haun. It is a powerful collection of songs that will challenge and uplift listeners who have been longtime fans, as well as attract new listeners who have never experienced the unmistakable sound that has made the iconic group so popular for over half a century.
Riding high on the success of the group’s current Top 10 hit, “Warmin’ Up,” StowTown plans to release at least three radio singles from this brand-new recording, promising even more radio success in the coming months.
Producer and StowTown Records Executive Wayne Haun shared his excitement about the new release, “This album is classic Perrys! It has absolutely everything you could want in a Perrys recording, from reimagined classics to traditional convention sounds. Add in some fresh new material and, as always, it all fits perfectly and is performed brilliantly.”
One special cut from the recording that will no doubt be embraced by radio upon its release is the remake of the upbeat “You Can’t Hurry God.” From legendary songwriter Dorothy Love Coates, who penned such classics as “I’m Sealed” and “Get Away Jordan,” this particular cut is an appropriate reminder of God’s perfect timing.
The moving ballad, “Jesus Is,” is a simple message of the ever-present, perfect love of Jesus, regardless of any situation. Another message of the love of God and His unwavering faithfulness can be found in the progressive, yet powerful “A Million Reasons.” Prolific writer Jeff Bumgardner united with Joey and Kristi Stroud to create this beautifully written expression of God’s abundant grace.
This latest recording effort is yet another reminder from Libbi and The Perrys of the victory that can only be found by trusting in the faithfulness of a Father who is always directing our path, through the twists and turns on the long, long road. Libbi expressed her joy about the new recording, “Long, Long Road is a very fitting title with this being our 54th year since we began on our journey on Christmas Day in 1970, when we gathered around the family piano and sang our very first song after the tragic loss of our oldest brother that previous July. We’ve seen a lot of hard days, but God has remained faithful to the calling He placed on our lives. For every valley, there has always been a mountaintop! For every tear that has been shed, there has always been a smile and some laughter. This album is filled with songs that have fit every phase in our lives. There are even songs of rejoicing about when we finally reach that hallelujah meeting at the end of this long, long road! We are too close to our Heavenly Home to stop now.” She continued with a beloved scripture passage, Philippians 3:13-14, “Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”

Nashville, TN – New Haven Records has released the much-anticipated new recording from the quartet Gold City. Right Now hits the streets on October 25 and features 11 songs.
Gold City has been recognized as one of the leading quartets in the Southern Gospel Music genre for nearly a half-century. With countless radio hits, including ten #1 singles and over 60 Singing News Fan Awards from Southern Gospel Music’s leading industry and fan publication, this quartet has consistently earned the respect of fans and industry peers alike. They have received honors and accolades from numerous industry organizations, including their induction into the Gospel Music Association Hall of Fame in 2017.
This Dove-Award-winning recording artist is credited for such popular songs as I’m Not Giving Up, It’s Still The Cross, All My Hope, When I Get Carried Away, and their signature mega-hit, Midnight Cry. Refusing to rest on past laurels, the legendary quartet travels more than 160 dates each year, sharing the Gospel’s message through song to thousands of fans who continue to embrace the musical legacy, simply known as Gold City.
The recording’s debut single, Help Is On The Way, was released to radio stations late last year. The song, from the pen of writer Squire Parsons, sat at the #2 position for three months in a row, while the second single, When It’s Gone For Good, is currently climbing the airplay charts and is in heavy rotation on Sirius XM’s Bill Gaither Enlighten channel. “The response to the first two singles has been amazing,” states New Haven Records President Ken Harding. “We are so excited to be able to witness the impact these incredible songs are making personally. The entire recording is filled with songs we know long-time Gold City fans will embrace. New listeners will be introduced to the exceptional stylings that have made Gold City a household name among Southern Gospel Music lovers for more than four decades.”
While the recording doesn’t hit the streets until later this month, Right Now made its official debut at the 2024 National Quartet Convention, much to the delight of Gold City fans attending the week-long event in Pigeon Forge, TN. “It was quite a week,” Danny Riley, a long-time Gold City member, shares. “We were thrilled to sing some of the new songs from the recording, and they were well received by event attendees. It was a very special week.”
Right Now, co-produced by Riley, Michael Sykes, and former long-time Gold City pianist Garry Jones, marks the first with the new quartet line-up featuring Riley, Chris Jenkins, Josh Feemster, and Jeff Chapman. “This recording has been a long time in the making,” Riley states. “The voices on this recording represent some of the finest I have ever sung with. I’m proud of each man on this team, and I hope this recording reflects that.”
Indicative of the rich musical heritage Gold City has delivered for 45 years, Right Now also provides a perfect glimpse at the bright future that lies ahead for this quartet. Riley’s excitement is easy to detect as he conveys the message the recording represents. “Right Now is a collection of songs we feel represent who Gold City has always been, coupled with where we are going in the future.”
Right Now is available on all digital platforms and wherever music is sold. Additional information regarding Gold City may be obtained at www.goldcityministries.com.
