About Me:: I am a third generation Gospel Lap Steel Guitarist. My interest in the lap steel guitar began at age 6 and I began performing publically in church services at age 9. My father Henry Nelson and my uncle Willie Eason are my heros and greatest influences. My Uncle Willie Eason introduced the lap steel guitar to the House of God Churches and thus is known as the father of Gospel Steel. He later taught my father Henry, who was noted as a phenominal guitarist for over 50 years. He performed with several gospel greats but the most noted was Mahalia Jackson. He passed away in 2001 and my uncle Willie passed away in 2006. I am comitted to continuing our family legacy and heritage by remaining true to my roots and the lap steel style. I am also a minister and have been for 30 years. I am currently pasturing in Knoxville, TN, however, I live in Nashville, TN. My wife Lori is also a minister, thus we are partners in all things. Our Band; "The Aubrey Ghent Band" or "Aubrey Ghent & Friends" fits into all gospel genres. We perform at most venues within the United States and abroad. We are totally independent and now have our own Indie label entitled AuLo Records. Check out my web site as well as our umbrella web site at: www.aulogroup.com. To schedule me or my Band contact my Booking Agent, Lori at lorighent@aol.com, or call 615-478-5724. We would love to perform at your upcoming venues.

Favorite Artists and Bands: BB King and Derek Trucks for blues and most all Gospel Artists.
