Who we are

Crimson Chord is a gospel music trio based in Mount Washington, Kentucky. Group members include Terry Dorsey, Donna Burke and Lena Aldridge.

Terry Dorsey, began singing all over the United States as lead singer and manager of his family group, The Gloryland Singers at the age of 14 and has had the privilege of working with some of the elite in Southern Gospel music. He has worked with such artists as the Cathedrals, McKameys, Dottie Rambo, Inspirations, Happy Goodman Family, Gold City, Hoppers and many more. In 2008 Terry traveled with the Hall of Fame group, Naomi & the Segos and sang on the main stage of the National Quartet Convention. He was the creator of the “Golden Girls of Gospel” tour featuring Naomi Sego, Lulu Roman and Dottie Rambo. Terry is a piano player and a talented songwriter. His solo CD release in 2004 included the self-penned charting single, “He Did It Once.”

Donna Burke has many years of experience in Gospel music and has worked with some of the most prestigious artists of the genre. Her latest recording includes a collaboration with award-winning writer Gerald Crabb. During her time with her former group, Face to Face, Donna placed in the top three, two years in a row at the National Quartet Convention Talent Search. Also a gifted songwriter, her original, solo single, “Mama Taught Me How To Pray,” was a charting success from her first solo project. While having a distinct voice and style all her own, she is often compared to Allison Krauss and Dolly Parton.

Lena Aldridge, the newest member of the trio is a multi-award-winning gospel music singer, piano player and songwriter. In 2010, she won the Renfro Valley Gospel Talent Search; in 2011 she was a finalist in the Embassy Music Talent Search in Nashville, Tennessee and also a finalist in the Kentucky Idol Competition. In 2012 she won the Glen Rice Future Star talent competition. Her bluesy-gospel style has garnered her two solo charting singles with “He'll Do It Again” and “On Time God” with Grace Records.

Terry, Donna and Lena are excited about Crimson Chord's most recent single release entitled, “Covered By The Blood”. It is from their current recording project entitled “Gentle Shepherd” with Free Spirit Music Group.
