In the early 80s, Watson, Craver and Thompson released a highly acclaimed album of Carter Family songs titled MEETING IN THE AIR.
Co-founder and banjo player Tommy Thompson passed away in early 2003, after a long battle with Alzheimer's.
Bill, Jim and Mike had all left the band by 1986, but they still get together and play music, these days joined by Joe Newberry on banjo and vocals.
In 2012, Craver, Hicks, Watson & Newberry released an album of their current repertoire entitled YOU'VE BEEN A FRIEND TO ME.
