For four-part Quartet harmony, delivered with sincerity and experience, you need look no further
than the ANCHORMEN, a group of young men based in Goldsboro, NC. The dedication they
demonstrate has been evident with feedback from their performances such as “electrifying”,
“energetic”, “great quartet harmony” and “such fine, dedicated young men”!
Growing up near “Mayberry, NC”, Keith Casstevens cut his teeth listening to southern gospel
music. After joining his first quartet at just 12 years old, he realized it would have to be a part of his
life forever. His powerful lead voice and warm personality make him a fan favorite every night.
Keith is married and has three children.
Tenor Karl Rice, from Charleston, SC started singing with his dad at 10 years old. He was raised
in and around gospel music all his life. His dynamic tenor voice, harmonica playing and emcee
work brings audiences to their feet everywhere they perform. Karl is 22 years old and is the
youngest member of the ANCHORMEN.
Spartanburg, SC native Robbie Norwood brings a lifetime of experience to the ANCHORMEN.
During his high school years he was in the SC Baptist Allstate Choir which later led him to the SC
Allstate Chorus with several national performances including New York City’s Carnegie Hall and
many cruise ships. His rich baritone voice and incredible delivery makes him a vital part of every
ANCHORMEN appearance.
Bass singer Jon Hall, a preacher’s kid, started in gospel music playing bass guitar as a teenager.
Jon and his brothers formed their own quartet shortly after, traveling and singing for several years
on a weekend basis. His deep voice thrills audiences night after night. When not singing, Jon
enjoys hunting and fishing. Jon is a native of Elon, NC.
The ANCHORMEN travel performing 200 plus dates per year in all varieties of major events……
from Concerts Halls, Cruises, Churches, Arenas, Festivals, Fairs, Theme Parks and International
venues.
