Before strains of "Auld Lang Syne" ring out at midnight on New Year's Eve, there will be gospel music raising the roof of the Colonnade when the eighth annual New Year's Eve Gospel Music Jubilee is held on Tuesday night, Dec. 31.
Appointed Quartet of Tunnel Hill, Georgia, will again host this New Year's Eve tradition. Joining them will be featured artists The Talleys from Morristown, Tennessee. This is one show gospel fans won't want to miss since it may be their last chance to hear The Talleys. In November, the trio announced that 2020 would be their final year of touring.
The Talleys are a Southern gospel trio composed of Roger and Debra Talley, and daughter Lauren Talley.
The group has received numerous accolades from the Gospel Music Association, Dove Awards, Singing News Fan Awards, Southern Gospel Music Guild Harmony honors, BMI Awards and SGN Music Awards.
