艺人介绍

by John BushDescribed by Larry Norman as being too Christian for the radio, and too radio for the Church, the 77s were formed in Sacramento in the early 80s by Mike Roe (vocals, guitar) Mark Tootle (keyboards, guitar, vocals), Jan Eric Volz (bass, guitar, vocals) and drummer Mark Proctor. Known at first as the Savage Young Scratch Band, the Christian band changed their name and released Ping Pong over the Abyss in 1982, and then replaced Proctor with Aaron Smith for All Fall Down two years later. Mark Tootle left after the 77s live album 88, but the group split up after 1990s Sticks and Stones. Roe then re-formed the band with Smith and two-thirds of the Strawmen: Mark Harmon (bass, vocals) and David Leonhardt (rhythm guitar, vocals). Seventy Sevens (originally titled Pray Naked) was released in 1992. Drowning with Land in Sight appeared in 1994, and was followed by tom tom Blues. Roe has also recorded as a solo artist and with the Lost Dogs. In the late 90s, the group formed their own Fools of the World label and reissued many of their older albums, as well as releasing 1999s EP and 2001s A Golden Field of Radioactive Crows among other new titles.
