Dee Vaughn began singing in church when he was 10 years old, and, unlike Phil Sharp, Dee is still waiting for his voice to change!!  Seriously, God has blessed Dee with a dynamic and powerful tenor voice that is literally one in a million.  Audiences night after night are spellbound as he sings such favorites as “I Bowed on My Knees”, and “Oh, What a Saviour”.  Yet Dee always maintains a refreshingly humble attitude, and gives God all the glory for the gift he has been given.  Dee comes from a musical family and says his dad and uncle taught him to sing “by letter” – open your mouth and “let-er” fly!  Dee joined his first quartet, the Psalms, as a young man, and traveled with them for about 6 years.  It was during these years that he began taking voice lessons from Glenn Wilson, a Professor of Music at Cook County College.  Dee credits Professor Wilson with helping him develop his raw talent into a more polished sound.  He then sang with Southern Promise for 2 years, followed by a 4 year stint with the Gatemen.  Dee joined the Whole Heart Quartet as an original member in 1999.  He is married to LeeAnn, and they have one daughter, Krystal, who has completed her Masters degree in Musical Performance.
