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. Both of these recordings feature three generations of family talent including Destiny and Israel, original members Reba & Dony and the late Buck Rambo. In 2017, Rambo McGuire released a new StowTown Records digital single “Trouble Has A Way” which can be found in most online digital outlets. Many of their previously most requested contemporary Christian songs are still available on The Noteworthy Collection and Reba’s latest solo project The Lady’s Treasury. DONY MCGUIRE AND REBA RAMBO Both Dony and Reba come from a rich musical family heritage. At the age of 13, Reba Rambo began traveling with her parents, Buck and Dottie Rambo, in the legendary southern Gospel music group, The Rambos. As a young boy, Dony McGuire toured with his four brothers and many popular Gospel singing groups before joining The Downings. They both launched solo careers in the late ‘70s becoming trendsetters in contemporary Christian music before joining forces as Rambo McGuire. When they're not traveling, Dony and Reba continue to compose and write songs including several new collaborations with Bill and Gloria Gaither as well as other well known writers across all genres of music. They are not only acclaimed songwriters but have written articles for Gaither’s Homecoming Magazine and Reba was featured in her own column “There Has To Be A Song.” In addition, she is in the process of completing her second book, a collection of stories behind the songs of Dottie Rambo. They devote a portion of their schedule to teaching creative writing workshops giving young and seasoned writers practical instruction in the craft of writing songs, stories, sermons, and speeches. “I wish someone had taught me these principles and secrets when I was young because it would have shaved years off my creative learning process,” says Reba. Dony and Reba also teach and minister through their online church, The River. They broadcast the Good News of God's unconditional love to the world weekly through Facebook Live on Reba's page at www.facebook.com/RebaRamboOfficial on Tuesdays at 6:30 PM Central. Videos are also archived and can be viewed anytime on Reba's Facebook page. DESTINY RAMBO MCGUIRE AND ISRAEL ANTHEM MCGUIRE The next generation of Rambo McGuire brings its own talent and versatility to the family group. Dony and Reba's children, Destiny and Israel, traveled for years with their parents performing and developing their unique gifts. Destiny is sought after as a singer, songwriter, actress, dancer, and choreographer. Israel is a GRAMMY-nominated video director, singer, songwriter, and musician as well. Destiny's heartfelt vocals and Israel's dynamic percussion skills are an integral part of the soul-stirring music of Rambo McGuire. __________________________________________________________ Awards and Achievements 1977 Dove Award 1995 Honorary Doctorate of Divinity Pop/Contemporary Album Of The Year Bethel Christian College Reba Rambo ~ Lady Dony McGuire 1980 GRAMMY Award 2001 Gospel Music Hall Of Fame Induction Best Contemporary Gospel Album Of The Year The Rambos Dony McGuire and Reba Rambo Buck, Dottie and Reba The Lord’s Prayer 2008 Certificate of Ordination 1981 Dove Award Fellowship Of Vineyard Harvester Churches Praise And Worship Album Of The Year Dony McGuire and Reba Rambo Dony McGuire and Reba Rambo The Lord’s Prayer 2012 Dove Award Bluegrass Album Of The Year 1985 Dove Award ~ Song Of The Year Rambo McGuire ~ Grassroots Rambos Gloria Gaither and Dony McGuire “Upon This Rock” 2017 Legends Award Presented By Chrisagis Brothers Ministries 1994 Doctorate of Sacred Music Rambo McGuire Bethel Christian College Dony McGuire and Reba Rambo 2017 Dove Award Southern Gospel Recorded Song Of The Year 1994 Certificate Of Ordination Reba, Dony, Bill Gaither, Chip Davis, Gaither V.
