Vern Gosdin is commonly referred to as “The Voice”. After listening to just one of his songs, you will understand why.
In the ‘60s Vern bounced around with different groups singing gospel and bluegrass. However it was not until the early ‘80s that he became a consistent top ten performer. In 1983 Vern had 2 top 5 hits with If You’re Gonna Do Me Wrong (Do It Right), and Way Down Deep. Then in 1984 he had his first number 1, I Can Tell By The Way You Dance (You’re Gonna Love Me Tonight).

After a slow time in the mid ‘80s, Vern Gosdin hit the top 10 again in 1987 with Do You Believe Me Now? Then in 1988 he reached number 1 again with Set ‘Em Up Joe (which is my personal favorite). Then in 1989 his Chiseled In Stone, won the CMA song of the year.
Vern does some occasional touring. He would be a great asset to Branson, maybe not as a solo in a theater, but could definitely share one for a great evening show.
