The Highway Q.C.'s

The Highway Q.C.'s are a legacy within the sphere of gospel music, with roots extending back to the post-war era of the 1940s. Founded in Chicago, this quintet initially gathered acclaim for the vitality and passion they brought to the gospel genre. Named after the Hyde Park A.M.E. Church's High School Bible class (The Highway Bible Class), the group quickly established themselves with their dynamic vocal harmonies and spiritual fervor. Over the years, they have become known for nurturing talent that would rise to legendary status, including soul icons such as Sam Cooke, Johnnie Taylor, and Lou Rawls, who all performed with The Highway Q.C.'s at the onset of their illustrious careers.

Over the decades, The Highway Q.C.'s have maintained their relevance in gospel music through a commitment to their religious message and musicality. Their works have been a bedrock of inspiration and comfort, as evidenced by a discography that includes soul-stirring tracks such as "Every Now & Then" and "I Feel The Power." The group's 2021 release, "The Highway Qc's 2021 Inaugural Gospel Celebration Limited Edition," continues to showcase their rich legacy and adaptability in contemporary gospel circles. Despite changes in line-up and the evolution of music styles, The Highway Q.C.'s have consistently delivered messages of hope and faith through their recordings and performances, solidifying their place as one of the enduring torchbearers of traditional gospel music. Their "Anthology" stands as not just a collection of their songs but as a historical record of the genre's transformation over time.
