Kerry Beatty, the owner of PSQ, is from Franklin, Tennessee, just outside of Nashville where he, his wife Lisa and son Jonathan reside in a country ambiance where he escapes to the peace and relaxation from the hectic travel schedule.  Kerry comes from a rich legacy of Southern Gospel Music made available in part by the years he spent traveling with his Dad and Mother, Woody and Peggy Beatty, who have experienced renown and acclaim in their own right.  Kerry witnessed a dedication to gospel music done right.
 
 As a child he reminisces about hearing the great harmonies of the super groups, quartets and legends the made gospel music much of what it is today.  His father Woody traveled with the great Jake Hess and Rosie Rozell where Kerry spent many years watching these masters of trade in the climax of their careers.  From that time, Kerry knew that his life was charted to follow the legends that paved the road before him.  While being a phenomenal saxophone player, musician, recipient of numerous awards and much accolade, it was empty in comparison to what he felt his real mission and ministry would be.
 
As you talk to Kerry you sense his humility and his genuine care for people and in no way would he promote himself with selfish ambition.  For those of us who have experienced the velvet lead vocals the he possesses find it to be something that is not only special but the start of his own legacy.  He joined PSQ in 1997 taking the place of the very capable Jack Bagwell, who was with the group for 48 years.  Since that time he has consistently provided the distinguishable sound of the quartet where he remains to this day.  He fully embraces the responsibility of leading this group into the next decade of ministry and beyond.
 
Kerry understands that this level of ministry is not a solo act and not for the faint of heart.  It takes a strong wife and family with a lot of love and prayers to keep it going.  Kerry has established his priorities very clearly as follows: God, family, ministry.
