| “We’ve been carrying these songs around with us for a long time,” said The Malpass Brothers. “Some of them we’ve sung on stage for years, some we grew up hearing at church and at home, and all of them mean something to us. Getting to finally put them together on one project and record them live felt like the right way to tell that story.”
Known for their deep-rooted traditional style, The Malpass Brothers grew up in Goldsboro, North Carolina, immersed in the sounds of country and gospel music from an early age. Inspired by their grandfather’s record collection and the artists who shaped the genre, the brothers have built a career on carrying those traditions forward with authenticity and respect.
“Chris and Taylor have a deep respect for the traditions that shaped country and gospel music, and they bring that to life every time they step on stage,” said Paul Sizelove, President of Sun Label Group and Gaither Music Group. “This project captures that authenticity in a powerful way, and we’re proud to partner with them in sharing it with audiences everywhere.”
Backed by a seasoned band, Satisfied: Country Gospel Classics showcases the warmth, simplicity, and reverence that have become hallmarks of The Malpass Brothers’ sound while highlighting the enduring influence of gospel music on traditional country artists and audiences alike.
Last month, The Malpass Brothers were honored by their hometown of Goldsboro, North Carolina, with an official proclamation presented by Mayor Charles Gaylor IV recognizing the duo’s dedication to country music and their continued efforts to bring national attention and pride to their community. The duo was also surprised backstage at the Grand Ole Opry with the announcement that The Paramount Theatre in Goldsboro will name its annex after The Malpass Brothers later this year.
Raised on the timeless sounds of classic country music, The Malpass Brothers drew early inspiration from legendary harmony duos before later being mentored by steel guitar icon Don Helms. The brothers spent seven years opening for Merle Haggard, who also produced their debut album, Memory That Bad. They later continued that tradition-focused approach through projects with Bluegrass Hall of Famer Doyle Lawson.
