The Classic Imperials began from humble origins when founder and music icon Jake Hess crafted a reputation for both high ethical integrity and a diverse musical catalog through their tenure at Benson Records, which was marked by the release of seminal albums like 'Introducing the Illustrious Imperials' and 'Fireside Hymns.' Their repertoire later expanded into contemporary Christian music through Word Records. The ensemble’s evolution saw pivotal changes when new talents such as Jim Murray, Dave Will, and Russ Taff joined, enhancing their sound and leadership. This period produced unforgettable albums like 'Heed the Call.' Further transformation introduced former members of major Christian music groups such as Rick Evans, associated with figures like Dennis Agajanian and organizations including Billy Graham. Leadership took a definitive shape under President Glen R. Evans. The mission statement today emphasizes delivering messages that resonate hope to modern audiences via faith-centric performances. This is echoed by the group’s ongoing efforts which have kept them prominent in the Christian Music scene for over 40 years. Rick Evans takes on the roles as lead/tenor, backed by veteran artists like Armond Morales and Dave Will, continuing their tradition of influential music ministry. Their partnerships extend to high-profile organizations such as Harvest Crusades (Greg Laurie), Promise Keepers, and Billy Graham, reflecting their extensive reach and adaptability in connecting with varied audiences. As they move ahead under Rick Evans' guidance, their last annual report disclosed on April 3, 2024, signifies continued engagement within the music industry through a legacy of melodic enrichment combined with purposeful ministry.
