About The Goulds

     Energy, excitement, encouragement and an anointed spiritual presence along with tight family harmonies and a close knit blend is what you experience when you spend a time of worship, fun, love and laughter with the Goulds!

     The Goulds are a family trio from Joplin, MO and are made up of group members Tim Gould (dad/baritone), Deb Gould (mom/sound), Kelsey Gould-Mertens (daughter/alto) and Christa Gould (daughter/soprano).  While Tim and the girls handle the vocal responsibilities, mom runs sound and keeps everyone in line.  The family is blessed to be entering their 10th year of ministry together and are looking forward to what God has in store for their family.

     When the girls came to Tim years ago and asked to start singing with him, little did they know what God had in store for them.  Since that day they have enjoyed singing in places large, small and everything in between.  The family is blessed to have found radio success with numerous nationally charting songs which have reached out and touched lives all across the world.
     Tim and the girls have appeared on national television, the main stage of the National Quartet Convention, the Echo Hollow Amphitheater at Silver Dollar City in Branson, MO and at the Silver Dollar City Southern Gospel Picnic.  
They have also been featured as a spotlight artist on The Gospel Greats with Paul Heil and have appeared alongside of many legendary artists such as the Isaacs, the Perry's, Triumphant Quartet, Tribute Quartet, the Browders, the Blackwood Brothers, the Kingsman and many, many others.

     The Goulds know what it is to need, feel and experience the love of Christ in their lives.  Raised in Christian homes, both Tim and Deb grew up going to church.  When they met in college and were married it seemed that church became a low priority in their lives.  After the birth of their first daughter Kelsey they continued staying out of church till one fateful evening when a 2 year old Kelsey pulled a full size dresser, tv and vcr down upon her head.  The whirlwind that followed included being told their young daughter might be paralyzed for life and that she might not even make it at all.  As the Life Flight helicopter was being prepared, an unforcasted, freak snowstorm blew in and grounded the helicopter.  Both Tim and Deb, like so many others when trials and troubles come their way, turned to the Lord for help.  Both were praying that He would intervene in some way or even take one of them if it would save their daughter.  The Lord did intervene and kept the young family in Joplin, MO where an MRI was performed and found that Kelsey had only severely sprained her neck.  Tim and Deb got back into church and the family has remained faithful ever since.  Eventually, Christa came along.  As the girls grew, nights would find Tim playing his guitar and singing the girls to sleep with songs he grew up with, many being the old hymns.  Tim prayed during those years that the Lord would someday use his family musically to further the Gospel, encourage others and share the story that God had given his family.  Now, as this prayer comes to fruition the family recognizes the hand of God upon their lives and knows that He is calling them to serve.

     Known for their tight family harmonies, smooth easy vocals and their loving spirit, the Goulds minister to old and young alike.  Their songs will lift and encourage you, as well as speak to your heart as only their songs can.
