The Brown Singers is a family gospel group from Columbus, Ohio consisting of four sisters and one brother.[1] Their mother Doris L. Brown trained and accompanied the group. Under her musical direction, The Brown Sisters were three time winners on the Ted Mack Original Amateur Hour.[2][3] The group has toured with the Chicago Brass Quintet where Doris L.
