Popular bluegrass recording artist, Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver.. has added yet one more credit to thier list of honors and accolades. When the August issue of The Singing News Magazine hits newsstands,.. for the very first time, Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver will have a song in the Top 5 on the Southern Gospel Top 80 Chart. Shortly after Crossroads Entertainment released “Help Is On The Way” to radio, the song made it’s debut on the May (2008) SN Chart at #41. Since then, the song has soared up the Chart and will sit at the #4 position for the month of August.
