The Wooten Four

Two Wings

The Wooten Four (full album)

The Wooten Four
Recorded at Mark V Studios, Greenville, South Carolina
Produced by Joe Huffman
Hymntine Records HPS 2046

From the back cover: The four young Wootens – Buena, the contralto, Naomi, the "Mahalia Jackson-like" lead singer, pianist Arizona and brother Hamp – were raised in the heart of the coal fields of Eastern Kentucky and have been singing together for ten years.

Comment left on an older, original post: Mark, The Wootens are still in Kentucky, they usually came to the church I attend in Madison TN., sub of Nashville, but they have not been there the past 2 years. Our church would raise money and bring in items for them to give to the needy families of Kentucky at Chistmas. I believe one of the sisters has been in bad health.Thanks for posting the album and song!

  1. I just happened to stumble upon this page while also searching for the Wootens. The Wootens, who I'm distantly related to, still live in Eastern Kentucky. If I'm not mistaken, they live in Somerset. Just this past week, the group came to my church in London, Kentucky. The girls and Hamp, the male singer, sang and he preached following the singing. They're a great group and I'm so fortunate to have had the opportunity to have spend the week with them!
