In 1982, Lancaster began pursuit of his dream to spread the Gospel through a cappella music by creating Acappella Ministries in his hometown of Paris, Tennessee.
[2] Acappella released its first album with the original name of His Image quartet in 1982, produced by Lancaster, who also sang lead.
By this time, both groups began recording and performing primarily original music, much of which was composed by Lancaster.
Lancaster continues to produce various projects, work as a worship minister at the Cullman Church of Christ in Cullman, Alabama, and is heavily involved with The Acappella Company's leadership, but is now focusing on traveling the world and presenting his "Praise & Harmony Workshops" at various churches who want to improve their singing and worship.
Lancaster is married to Sharon, and has four children (Melissa, Kimberly, Anthony, and Allison) who are actively involved in the work of The Acappella Company's vocal bands.
