    CONTACT PO Box 50508 Nashville, TN 37205 615.673.2657 [email protected] Rambo McGuire is an acclaimed family group that has a long legacy of singing Christian music. The group began over 30 years ago as a duo with GRAMMY and Dove Award-winning artists and songwriters Dony McGuire and Reba Rambo. The duo dynamic continues today, but mostly they perform as a trio with their daughter Destiny Rambo McGuire joining them on vocals. Dony and Reba’s son Israel Anthem McGuire adds to the family mix by playing percussion. Their unique style of singing and songwriting gives Rambo McGuire the ability to perform a diversity of musical genres—from contemporary Christian, rhythm and blues, praise and worship to country, folk, bluegrass and southern Gospel—appealing to a wide variety of audiences. They have performed all over the world from storefront churches to the largest concert stages, before presidents and kings, battle-worn military troops, maximum security prisons, college campuses, and billions of viewers of Christian and mainstream television including the GRAMMY Awards. Rambo McGuire continues to travel and sing in churches and concert halls throughout the nation and is featured on Gaither Homecoming videos and concert series. LATEST PROJECTS The two latest Rambo McGuire projects commemorate the music of The Rambos. There are 14 new recordings of The Rambos’s most beloved songs penned by Dottie and Reba in their newest StowTown Records release, Rambo Classics. “This is a must for every serious Rambo and southern Gospel collector,” says Reba. In 2012 Rambo McGuire won a Dove Award for Grassroots Rambos celebrating the early mountain style of The Rambos.
