“We are extremely honored to have been recognized in the SGN Music Awards,” mentioned McCray Dove of the Dove Brothers Quartet. “The SGN Music Awards have proven that they are about recognizing quality, and we are truly humbled that they have chosen to recognize the Dove Brothers Quartet.”

“The Dove Brothers are a classic example of exactly who and what we try and honor with our awards,” mentioned Deon Unthank, administrator of SouthernGospelNews.com (home of the SGN Music Awards). “They have proven over the last couple of years that they are more than just a flash in the pan artist and are in this thing for the long haul. They truly want to grow as musicians, and they want to see this genre grow. We wish every group took that kind of attitude when it came to their career in music.”

Jerry Martin of the Dove Brothers Quartet said, “Our latest project, Never Same, means a lot to us as a group. The songs that were included minister to us as well as the fans. We are very excited to be given this specific platform to share the message of the Gospel.”

Many people believe this is the Dove Brothers’ career song – and we just might have to agree. However, people are simply being touched by the message of the song. It is resonating with the fans, and we are thankful that we had the chance to record this song.”
