RandyBand/artist history
Southern VII
My name is Randy Kelley, I am the lead vocalist for the Christian Southern Rock Band Southern VII. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you a little about the group and its origin. In the late 70s and early 80s, I was living in Tampa, Fl and was introduced to the sound known as Southern Rock, being impressed with the working mans music and its blue collar roots, I became an avid fan and began to perform with a local band playing the same circuit as some of the more popular groups of the day (IE: Lynyrd Skynyrd, Molly Hatchet, The Outlaws, Doc Holliday, etc), even having the opportunity to be the opening act, in the smaller venues, and to become personal friends with some of the members of these groups. One of the things, however, that this music was known for, was its hard livin, drinking, drugs, etc, was a way of life for the Southern rocker and it wasnt long until we also were living the hard life. In 1990, I came to the realization that without God, I was going nowhere fast, and was definitely Flirtin with disaster and upon receiving salvation and deliverance from the drug and alcohol addictions, God turned my musical talents in another direction. Along with two current members of Southern VII, Carol Joiner and Gina Holder, we formed the southern Gospel group known as Pure River performing in numerous churches, fairs and festivals throughout the southeast and releasing 2 CDs. During that time we welcomed the addition of our current drive section, Chance Faircloth on drums and Valerie Faircloth on Bass guitar. After 13 years of performing southern/ country Gospel, We felt like God called us to change our style to reach a whole new audience, and with the addition of Lenny Peterson on lead guitar, we bring to you, Southern VII. We are a live, high energy group, recreating that sound of hard drivin Southern rock, this time with a positive message that we feel can reach those who are familiar with and grew up listening to this style of music but have no Christian alternative to. Original songs coupled with some covers, Southern VII will deliver a powerful, life changing message in music, that wont soon be forgotten and bring a welcomed change of pace to Christian Music today.
