The Godfathers of Sydney Gospel return the The Gaelic Club.The Heavenly Light Quartet is dedicated to digging up the roots of Soul and RnB music - those intricate, rhythmic and fiery songs created by the great Gospel Quartet groups that were so popular in the ‘Golden Age’ of Gospel (1940-1960).
The group was formed back in 1996 by Tony Backhouse - a dedicated scholar in this artform - who studied and performed with Black Gospel quartets and choirs in the US for many years, as well as starting the (now legendary) Cafe of The Gate of Salvation in Australia in 1986.
The Heavenly Light Quartet have performed at many major Arts, Music, Jazz, Blues, Folk, World Music, Sacred Music and Acappella events across Australia and in Spain and France, and have performed and recorded with Renee Geyer, Tim Finn, Margaret Urlich, Harry Manx and many others.
