About Us

Victorious having fun at a recent recording session!

Victorious Trio ministers throughout Indiana and surrounding states. If you don't know us, the video tab has short video demo and two full songs. 
The 2020 Pandemic actually was responsible for the creation of Victorious!  When Easter of 2020 approached, Rich and Linda Sue's neighbor's were not going to let Easter go by without having church! Eleven families gathered in their cul-de-sac, and asked Rich and Linda Sue to provide special music. They set up their sound system through 150-feet of extension cords! The service was so loved by everyone, they had "Cul-de-sac Church" every Sunday from Easter through October! But a few weeks in, the Treptows had run out of duet music and called their friend, Cheryl, a soloist, to join them. She sent two accompaniment tracks to Rich, who arranged harmony parts, and then two additional tracks for several weeks thereafter. Before they knew it, they had a repertoire, and the cul-de-sac neighbors all encouraged them to stay together as a trio-and that is how Victorious was formed!

Cheryl Anderson sings lead soprano and until she joined Victorious, she had been a solo artist. Before finding gospel music, she sang country music for many years. Cheryl gave her heart and life to the Lord in 2006, and ever since has been an active member of her church, serving in several ministries including the choir, the children's Awana program, and the food pantry. Cheryl works as a licensed insurance agent, but also feels called to spread the Gospel through music. She has a heart to see the lost come to know Christ, and is grateful and feels blessed to be singing for the Lord with Rich and Linda Sue. To God be the glory always!  Cheryl’s email address is llywd2@gmail.com.

Rich Treptow sings tenor and is the group's music arranger. Before singing gospel music, Rich performed in several genres of music, including, vocal jazz, broadway show tunes, and for many years he sang barbershop harmony in quartets.  Rich accepted Christ while he was in the U.S. Air Force.  A former financial advisor, Rich has served local churches as treasurer and financial secretary, and graduated from seminary in 2016. He currently serves as an officer in both of Indiana's gospel music organizations, IGMF and IGMA. He is very happy to be singing with his wife, Linda Sue, and good friend, Cheryl. May God's love, grace, and peace be with you always! Rich's email address is RTreptow@aol.com.

Linda Sue Treptow sings alto and previously sang with Redeem the Time Trio, a vocal jazz ensemble, and for many years, Linda Sue specialized in classical choral music. Linda Sue gave her heart to Jesus as a child, and has continually been active in her local churches, serving as VBS director, facilitating Bible studies for Stonecroft Ministries, and currently is leading a Bible study near her home. In addition, both she and Rich are trained Stephen Ministers. Linda Sue is a former school teacher, teaching both math and Spanish. She feels blessed to be singing with her husband and sister-in-the-Lord, Cheryl. ¡Vaya con Díos!
