Background

The trio formed Boone, North Carolina during 1979, by the father of the Greene children, Everette Ralph Greene, with his three children, the eldest brother, Timothy Everette "Tim" Greene, the middle sister, Kimberly Ellen Greene, and their youngest brother, Anthony Elden "Tony" Greene. Their father played the piano as the group toured, playing at churches and other venues. Their sister would wed Dean Hopper of The Hoppers, and would leave the trio in 1989. After this time, the two brothers found Amy Lambert and Milena Parks to fill the soprano role in their group at various times. Until 1997, TaRanda Kiser joined the group fresh out of high school, after a successful audition. The group lost their founder, Everette Ralph Greene, in 2004.[1] The younger brother, Tony Greene, died in 2010 of pneumonia,[2] who was the husband of TaRanda Greene, having wed in February 2001. Soon thereafter, TaRanda left the group to start her full-time solo music ministry, and she is now with Cana's Voice. The three final members of the group were the eldest brother, Tim Greene, and Connor Bost and Keith Skiles.[3][4]

Music history

The trio has released numerous studio albums with Riversong Records, New Haven Records, Crossroads Records, Aca Digital Records.[5][6]
