It is no exaggeration to call South Carolina's The Dixie Hummingbirds one of the most beloved groups in gospel music history. The soulful quartet started singing in glorious harmony in 1928 and kept working well into the '00s, even influencing secular stars like Jackie Wilson and the Temptations, while also collaborating with Paul Simon. Though the GRAMMY® Hall of Fame and Vocal Group Hall of Fame inductees periodically surprise with covers of contemporary pop or soul hits, it's their inspiring songs of faith for which they're most widely celebrated.
