Crystal River Boys (1986-current)

History

The Crystal River Boys formed in 1986 with Dennis Bradley, Wayne Little, and Harold Coomer. Bradley had written several songs recorded by the Inspirations, Rex Nelon Singers, and the Hoppers through the 1970s and 1980s. The group's debut single appeared on the Singing News Top 80 chart but the trio shifted their focus to a part time ministry that continues to this day.

In the late 1990s, the group included bass singer Ken Turner as well as Wallace Nelms of Statesmen fame and founding lead Wayne Little who went on to sing tenor with the Blackwood Brothers. This line up was only together for a short period of time and made two recordings.
