Uncle Alf And The LeFevres (1977-1986)

History

Alphus LeFevre formed his own group in 1977 after leaving the LeFevres in 1976. Initially, all the group members were high school seniors aside from Alphus. The first lineup included Barry Smith, John Outler, Scott LeFevre (Alphus' son), Sue Rathbun, and Cheryl Perkins.

Meanwhile, The LeFevres had been rebranded as the Rex Nelon Singers in 1977. To avoid confusion, Alphus LeFevre's group went by The Alphus LeFevre Singers at first, Uncle Alf And The LeFevres later, and eventually, The LeFevres.

Alphus LeFevre's nephew Mike LeFevre soon joined the group. They sang part-time initially, but soon became full-time. This continued until 1984 as which point they became a part-time group again for a couple more years before completely disbanding.

Karen Peck sang with the group for approximately two years before joining the Nelons in 1981. After Peck's departure, Alphus' daughter, Marla, joined the group to sing soprano. Todd Nelon sang baritone for a short time before also joining the Nelons. Mike Bowling is another singer who was introduced to the music industry by Alphus through his group.
