About X-alt Quartet

X-alt Quartet.                                                                                                                           X-alt Quartet is a southern gospel group that has been in existence for three years, starting as 5 guys trying to get a song together to sing at a talent show at church.  From there they have become a quartet of Jason Laule, Jake Campenello, Eric Garrett and Steve Bell.

"We're 4 guys who enjoy singing together, for the Lord!  We're excited that God has allowed us to be used like this."

In their short existence they have sung at churches, prisons and nursing homes throughout East Texas.  They have performed many times at the Forney Opry.
 

After putting together some patriotic songs, including the National Anthem, they have sung for the Texas Rangers, the Fort Worth Blue Sox, and several county Republican meetings, including Kaufman, Bell and Collin counties.  They have also performed at a national seniors conference in Branson MO.




Meet the Group

Jason Laule


Jason, the tenor of the group was born in Linden, TX and raised in Queen City, TX. 

His father was a minister of music at New Hope Baptist Church in Bloomburg TX.  As a result, Jason has been in choirs since he was old enough to talk.

Choirs that Jason has been in have sung the National Anthem at a New York Mets baseball game as well as Walt Disney World.  In 1993 he was a member of the Texas Baptist All-State Choir. 





Jake Campenello

Jake Campenello is the lead singer of X-alt.

He was born in upstate New York and moved to Texas in 1980.

At the age of 24 Jake began singing in churches and actually stopped singing for a period of time, but through the encouragement of his wife and others, started singing again.

He is one of the original members of X-alt.




Eric Garrett

Eric began singing in the third grade, when his mother “volunteered” him to sing in the school choir.  Eric was not happy at all, but did as his mother wished. 

Eric has been singing in choirs ever since, with the exception of the 9th grade when he was “too cool” to sing in choir. 

Eric is the baritone of X-alt and we’re glad he decided choirs were “cool”




Steve Bell

Steve was raised in Canada.  His family sang as a gospel quartet, he sang soprano.  Since then, his voice has changed and now he sings the bass for X-alt.

Music has always been a major part of Steve’s life, from choirs, to band to gospel groups.

He moved to Texas in 1983 and is one of the original members of X-alt.

                     


X-alt Quartet Mission Statement

Each member of X-alt recognizes that what talent we have has been given to us by God to accomplish His purpose in our lives.   We acknowledge that as scripture declares, the talents we have been given are to be used to bring glory to our Savior Jesus Christ.  That is what we seek to do in our concerts and performances.

It is our desire to present the God’s simple plan of salvation through the music that we sing, so that those who do not know Jesus Christ as Savior may be introduced to Him and His love for them. 

We also realize that there is a ministry to those who are already saved and so we sing about God’s provisions, companionship, grace and love toward us in this life, and then of the hope that lies before us, of Christ’s coming and our eternal heavenly home.

People often ask us – “How much do you charge to do a concert?”  Jake summed it up best and the group is in agreement – we are not looking for an offering, just an opportunity.  X-alt Quartet is a ministry the belongs to God and He is sufficient to meet our needs.  All of us have full time jobs and enjoy singing.  We are not looking for an income from ministering to people.  We have found that God is able to provide through the generosity of people who believe in what we are doing.  The donations, love offerings, etc. that God has blessed us with have always been sufficient to meet the financial needs of X-alt.

Jake, Jason, Eric and Steve
