“Gene is one of the best of the new basses and has probably the lowest voice of any of them. He can get down in the bottom of the barrell like JD Sumner used to. Gene was born May 3 1965 in Bragg City Missouri. His dad was a bass singer and now has a radio show in Bragg City. Gene is married and he and his wife Terri have a little boy that is the light of Gene's eye. He sang with the Florida Boys foir several years but as far as I can find out he is being a daddy and doing some local singing. There are 12 songs on his album "In Times Like These", one of the best albums in my Southern Gospel Music library of close to 400 CDs ” (year2010)

“Gene McDonald has become a well-known name in Southern Gospel music. From being with the Florida Boys to now, making appearances on Gaither Homecoming concerts I have worked with Gene in the studio and watched how he takes a song and makes it his own. He’s got a great bass voice and an awesome range that allows him to do more than just that as well.” (07/14/2010)
