Bonsall has been a member of the Oaks for 50 years, retiring from the road earlier this year (CAT 1/3). Joining the long-running quartet in 1973, Bonsall offered tenor vocals to hits including "I'll Be True To You," "Elvira," "Bobbie Sue," "American Made" and "Love Song." They were inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2015. Bonsall is also the author of 11 books, including the memoir I See Myself.
