Soul’d Out Quartet

In May of 2004, in answer to God’s call on his life, Matt Rankin of Georgetown, Ohio started a journey to find men of kindred spirits and equal yoking to partner with him in a mission to fulfill that calling by evangelizing God’s word through song. Now, in 2013, Matt’s calling and dream have been realized in Soul’d Out Quartet. Soul’d Out Quartet, which is comprised of Dusty Barrett (tenor), Jason McAtee (lead), Matt Rankin (baritone), Ian Owens (bass), is not only a vocal group continuing the heritage of Southern Gospel music, but is also and foremost a ministry team answering God’s call as stated in Ephesians: He gave some apostles, and some prophets, and some evangelists, and some pastors, and teachers; for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ. (Ephesians 4:11-13 KJV) In this spirit, Soul’d Out Quartet travels the country with a mission of evangelism and discipleship to not only win souls for Christ by telling the world “what the world doesn’t know”, but also to further strengthen and encourage God’s people to be the salt and light to the world and ambassadors for Christ, that we are each called to be and to exhort God’s people to be servants with hearts on fire!

The Lore Family launched out into radio and digital ministry on March 6, 2009. Their first national release was the title cut of their first project, An Absolutely Good Day. Since that day, the tight, family harmony of The Lore’s, along with anointed, Bible-based originals have earned the group the recognition as an up-and-coming, new artist. The Lore Family have recorded three projects at Daywind Studios in Nashville, Tn. Their most current album was produced by the industry- known Wayne Haun.

The Lore Family have sung on the many well-known stages across the country. These stages include the National Quartet Convention, Gatlinburg Gathering Showcase, Singing In The Sun Showcase, Gospel Music Showcase TV, Great American Gospel TV, Gospel Music USA TV, Dollywood, Silver Dollar City and more. They have been featured on The Gospel Greats with Radio Personality- Paul Heil. Their radio releases have been consistently in the top 20 of the Singing News Chart, and are played regularly on satellite stations such as EnLighten Radio Sirius XM. Fans voting in the Singing News Fan Awards have voted The Lore Family in the top 5 category for Favorite New Mixed Group for 2 consecutive years. Although charts and awards are honoring, The Lore Family understands that these things come and go. Their main purpose for radio/TV ministry is to give a message of hope and encouragement to seekers and believers. As the Lord blesses, The Lore Family will continue to record and release quality, anointed Southern Gospel Music.

As the family has physically matured, they have sought to grow spiritually and artistically in the music and evangelistic ministry. Keep listening and watching The Lore Family Ministry.
