Since then, they have become extremely well known all along the east coast for their beautifully blended harmony as well as their outstanding vocals in their own respect. They take pride in their background and love for traditional country music, gospel, and bluegrass. At all of their shows, you will see a mixture of all of these genres.

Jake Vanover was born and raised in Brodhead, KY where he grew up singing in church with his family. At the young age of 10, he began to take interest in singing as well as playing the acoustic guitar. Shortly after, he was a founding member of the well-known bluegrass band, Southern Strings, and played for many years all over the east coast with them. When Jake was just 17 years old, he had the honor of playing shows with country music band Halfway to Hazard, as well as Keith Anderson. This was a huge highlight in Jake's career because it taught him so much about the music business as well as the direction he wanted to go in music. Jake has become very well known for his voice that is limitless, and his ability to play the guitar that rivals some of the greats before him. Jake is currently the staff rhythm guitar player at Renfro Valley where he and Courtney currently perform on weekends.
Jake and Courtney now live in Mount Vernon, KY with their one year old son, Bryson. When they are not at home, you will most likely find them singing any and everywhere they can.
