The MacDonald Family Singers originated from Orange, MA, and over a period of about a decade recorded and gave concerts both locally in New England, as well as around the country.
Given below is a description, adapted from their website, modifying present tense to past, where appropriate.
The MacDonald Family Singers was a homeschooling family – made up of nine members, the children ranged in age from fourteen to twenty-nine and started with just a vocal program. As the children grew, instruments and more musical styles were added. They bought 10-15 instruments to their concerts, including a keyboard, brass, and various stringed instruments. Their repertoire included original Scripture melodies, a cappella hymns, traditional, gospel bluegrass, and sacred classical. They sang at churches, nursing and retirement homes, community events, camps, senior centers, and other various venues. With the purchase of a bus in 2003, the MacDonald family then had the opportunity to make several cross-country singing tours per year. Their albums Honey In The Rock, Power In The Blood, and Glorify The Lord With Me are available to listen or download here. The MacDonalds counted it a privilege to share the Gospel message of Jesus Christ where ever they travelled.
