Members

Rob Henry, the quartet's baritone, was diagnosed with esophageal cancer on May 30, 2003, and died shortly thereafter on September 4, 2003. Several prominent barbershop singers helped fill in after Rob's death, including Mike Slamka, Tony DeRosa, Brandon Guyton, and D.J. Hiner, but on June 3, 2004, the quartet announced their retirement at the end of 2005.
Jim Henry, Rob's younger brother, went on to direct the Ambassadors of Harmony to international championship victories in 2004, 2009, 2012 and 2016. Jim's new quartet, Crossroads, also won top honors in 2009, making Jim the only man in society history to direct the winning chorus and win with his quartet in the same year.
Kipp Buckner started singing barbershop when he was 14 and has won the International Champion Quartet Medal three times: with the GHG, previously in 1987 when he sang with the Interstate Rivals, and most recently in 2011 with his newest quartet, Old School.
Rich Knight has sung with the Ambassadors of Harmony since the 1970s. His lead voice creates the defining sound of the GHG.
