What you are booking

A gospel quartet in the South Carolina convention tradition — close harmony singing carried by the family that has held the name for more than sixty years.

Live, that becomes a full band: voices out front, rhythm section behind, a repertoire that moves from traditional quartet numbers to original songs like “Don’t Leave Me” and “I Found The Lord.”

Available as the full band or as an acoustic duo when the room is smaller.

“The Flying Clouds of South Carolina stopped us in our tracks at our Tosco Music Party. With just one ballad, six decades of family tradition came pouring through in their soulful, gospel harmonies. It was a beautiful reminder of the power of family, music, and tradition.”

John ToscoFounder & Executive Director, Tosco Music · Charlotte, NC

“The Flying Clouds of South Carolina have been a staple of the GrassRoots Festival family for many years. They bring a soulful blend of tradition, harmony, and musicianship to every performance. Their music is deeply rooted, full of energy and life, and they have a special ability to connect with audiences of all kinds.”

The group that started it

The men in the first photograph

There is a picture in the family archive, sepia and cracked at the corners, of five men in pale suits. Nobody in it is still singing.

They started in the quartet convention circuit of South Carolina, in an era when gospel groups moved church to church with their suits pressed and their harmonies tight. Everything The Flying Clouds do today started in that room.

The name has been travelling ever since — passed down, and now carried by the generation that grew up hearing it.
