音樂風格
1964-1969年與哥倫比亞公司簽約時,樂曲風格為流行,鄉村,民謠三者結合。1970年後,在Harold Reid建議下,組合離開哥倫比亞公司加入水星公司,並由Jerry Kennedy製作發行。這標誌著他們放棄了流行路線。
組合的風格和福音歌曲緊密聯繫在一起,Harold Reid說過:“我們把和諧的福音歌曲融入了鄉村音樂。”他們的音樂和福音歌曲是分不開的,他們的音樂不少是福音歌曲,他們還發行了幾張福音歌曲的專輯,The Statler Brothers的音樂受Blackwood Brothers影響。
他們總共發行了40多張專輯。
職業生涯
The Statler Brothers 職業生涯始於1964年,在Lynhurst Methodist Church 離他們家鄉附近的StauntonVirginia.表演。1964年,他們作為johnny cash在舞台上的和聲樂隊,參加johnny cash的唱片錄製和電視表演。這種學徒式的生活持續了8年半。在那段時間,他們終於錄製了他們的第一張有影響力的個人專輯《Flowers on the wall》。"We Got Paid by Cash."就是紀念這一時期的。
其中最著名的2首歌,DeWitt's寫的"Flowers on the Wall"他們第一次大獲成功,另一首就是"Bed of Rose's."1980年他們的錄像定期播放,在TNN電台 the Statlers是主力。1991-1998年The Nashville Network通過有線電視頻道播放他們每周一次的電視節目,他們的節目在TNN 1頻道上播放,這是歷史上收視最高的節目。
他們的歌曲還被推薦成為電影插曲,這一系列包括《上天下地大追擊 Smokey and the Bandit II 》(在這部影片中他們還參加演出)《夏洛特的網 (Charlotte's Web) 》和《低級小說》中的插曲"Flowers on theWall" 。在他們的職業生涯中,幽默的表演方式經常貫穿在他們大多數音樂中,因此還經常出現在各大頒獎儀式上,像"Lester Moran and the Cadillac Cowboys"一樣他們還發行了2張喜劇專輯,另一面是鄉村音樂。
他們先後4次打入排行榜的冠軍,1978 "Do You Know You Are My Sunshine?" ,1982"Elizabeth",1984 "My Only Love" 1985"Too Much on MyHeart" 。
1975下半年他們發行的"I'll Go to My Grave Loving You"獲得排行榜第5名的好成績,1977年系列的歌曲打入排行榜包括"The Movies "和"I Was There," 。1978年他們的專輯《Entertainers...On & Off the Record》中"Do You Know You Are My Sunshine,"獲得了第一個單曲冠軍。
1982年The Statler Brothers繼續他們的傳奇,DeWitt 回身體原因被查診斷為Crohn's disease離開了演唱小組,1990年8月15日去逝。Jimmy Fortune成功接替了他的位置。
之後他們發行了二張LP,1984年Atlanta Blue 和1985年 “Pardners in Rhyme”。
"Elizabeth"(這是一首獻給Elizabeth Taylor的歌曲) "My Only Love"和 "Too Much on My Heart," 都登上了排行榜的冠軍。
1987年專輯<Maple Street Memories >Deja Vu (Forever)進入排行榜前10名。1989年"More Than a Name on the Wall,"打入排行榜6名,這也是他們最後一首入榜歌曲。
2002年他們宣布退休,在10月26日他們在能容納10000人的Salem Civic Center 舉行告別演唱會。雖然他們不再巡迴演出,Mercury仍然2003年發行了最後一張CD/DVD《Amen, onCrossroads Records 》,2006年Mercury 和樂隊其它成員發行了《Favorites, a 12-song 》,這張專輯記錄了DeWitt離開後,1983-1993期間組合原創歌曲。
