The Bill Gaither Trio, originally simply The Gaither Trio, was a gospel music group, last consisting of Bill, his wife Gloria Gaither, and Michael English.

By 1957, The Gaither Trio -- consisting of siblings Bill, Danny, and Mary Ann -- was singing at churches and religious events.

In 1962, Danny graduated from college and went to Ohio to teach. His move brought about a change in the trio, as Gloria began "singing with the trio in the place of Dan." At that time, Bill and Gloria were high school teachers; Mary Ann was a college freshman. By 1966, Danny had rejoined the trio, with Gloria having had a baby.

Among the honors of the group, include two Grammys and 17 Dove Awards. The group was inducted into the Gospel Music Association Hall of Fame in 1999. They were also nicknamed the masters of gospel "feel-good music".
