The Western States Gospel Music Association (WSGMA) is an organization based out of California, formed in the late 1980s to extend the acceptance, influence and use of traditional gospel music in churches throughout California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada and Arizona.

Concerts & Music Production

The WSGMA hosts two or more Concerts a Year. Two of these events celebrate Memorial Day and Labor Day. Each of these concerts are complete with a Gaither Style Finale with all artists gathered together to sing classic Southern Gospel hits and Patriotic Songs conducted by Master of Ceremonies Dick Hillary.

In 1994, the WSGMA released a Various Artists Cassette 10 Artists, 20 Songs with the Artist roster of that era. In 1997 the charter members at that time recorded a Live CD Live Reunion Recording which was produced by Dennis Zimmerman.
