Combining 21st century ideas with the timeless quality of great quartets from the 1950s, Ernie Haase & Signature Sound have obliterated the traditional mold of gospel quartets. Their unconventional approach to communicating the Good News with ground-breaking originality has blazed a trail that will go down in gospel music history as no other group before them.

The group's founder and leader, Ernie Haase, was a long-time member of the famous Cathedral Quartet. His roots are deeply planted in the rich legacy of music that is both meaningful and thoroughly entertaining. After the Cathedrals bid farewell to their five-decade platform in the music industry, Ernie's passion for gospel music led him to begin a new era in gospel music. He gathered a group of like-minded men who shared his love for great harmonies, time-honored songs and energetic performances... and together they have become an unstoppable force in their industry. Inspired by their heroes, loved by their audiences and blessed beyond their wildest dreams, Ernie Haase (tenor), Ryan Seaton (lead), Doug Anderson (baritone) and Tim Duncan (bass) share a deep love for gospel music. That passion, along with an intensely strong work ethic, has launched them to the forefront of southern gospel music.

The group's first DVD release soared to the top of Billboard Magazine's music video chart and simultaneously topped the Christian Contemporary Music video chart. That same DVD achieved Gold sales status by the Recording Industry Association of America, and the project's accompanying audio release topped both CCM and Southern Gospel audio charts simultaneously at number one.

Ernie Haase & Signature Sound received two 2008 Dove Awards for their second DVD release in the categories of Southern Gospel Recorded Song of the Year and Southern Gospel Album of the Year (Get Away Jordan) and has also been certified Gold by RIAA. The group's success continues with each new release, but perhaps their most rewarding achievement is the new generation of gospel music lovers emerging across the globe as their contagious energy spreads like wildfire.

With the Fall 2008 release of the new audio recordings entitled Dream On, and their Dream On DVD and (which filmed in Chicago at the Famous Navy Pier), Ernie Haase & Signature Sound continue to break new ground with inspiring, entertaining performances packed with truth and overflowing with a joyful spirit of gratitude. Their award-winning sound keeps bringing listeners around the world back to their roots with their refreshing approach to gospel classics and new material that is uniquely Signature Sound.
