“Tribute Times” is the New Blog Launched by Tribute

Tribute Quartet announces the newly launched blog titled, "Tribute Times." The articles, within the Tumblr.com account, will be filled with frequent posts of pictures, videos, thoughts & other happenings in the life and "times" of Tribute.

Group manager, Gary Casto says, "We feel this will be an asset to our ministry in the cyber world - another way to connect with our friends. People prefer transparency with artists and we feel this is a great way to be just that!"

Each member will frequently post and expound on any random topic of their choosing. "I believe this is important. Not because, it's the 'thing to do' or 'everyone else is' but, because it's another outlet to share our hearts as followers of Christ", pianist/baritone, Josh Singletary, comments.

You can check out the blog here. If you already have a Tumblr account, you can follow "Tribute Times." For more information on Tribute, you can visit TributeQuartet.com.

Tribute’s Bus Destroyed In Fire

Bus On Fire

Tribute Quartet's bus on fire. Exit 150 on I-30 between Dallas, TX and Texarkana, AR ©2011 Tribute Quartet, Inc.

Friday, January 21, at approximately 5 o'clock in the evening, Tribute was en route to Texarkana, AR by way of  I-30 between Dallas, TX and Texarkana. At mile marker 150, the rear passenger tire blew and caught fire. After pulling over to the shoulder, attempts were made to extinguish the fire with no avail. They were able to clear all sound equipment, product and very little clothes before the entire bus, including all suit, ties, shirts, personal items, etc., was engulfed in flames.

All who were aboard the bus, escaped unharmed.

As of 7:30 PM, the Mount Vernon Fire Dept. was still fighting flames.

Tribute would like to thank all of Mount Vernon's emergency departments for their hard work and care. They would also like to thank all who have prayed and delivered well wishes. Your prayers are envied.

Please keep watching Tribute Quartet's schedule for more information. As of now, all appearances, starting Jan. 27, 2011, will be honored.
