Southern Image Quartet has been involved in spreading the Good News for many years. Two of the groups founders, Troy Cresap and Buddy Tennison, have been singing gospel music for 45 years together. Shay Guess has been involved with the group for approximately 15 years, working initially as the arranger/producer, and then as a vocalist. He is also a tremendous songwriter. His wife, Michi (the only known South Korean in Gospel Music), joined the group approximately 5 yrs ago, and her powerful voice has been likened to that of her hero, Vestal Goodman.
