Another recipient, Burl Strevel, came to Upstate, South Carolina from Knoxville, Tennessee, where he had a reputation of a “smooth” bass singer. He sang with the Popular Blue Ridge Quartet based in Spartanburg in the 1950s and left to sing with the Sunshine Boys when the legendary J. D. Sumner left that group and joined the Blackwoods.
