| Daren and Randy have been singing together since 1997. Daren's professional
career started in High School when she was a member of the Soundsations, the audition only music group.
She was active in Church music while her children were small, frequently singing at weddings, funerals, and
church services. In 1990, she received a karaoke machine so she could practice her music at home. This led to engagements
at local establishments and Opry houses. In 1995, she started her own business: Daren's Music Box. Randy began singing and playing the guitar in high school. He played in 2 bands and has written over 100 songs. He is an accomplished roper and bull rider, competing in the rodeo circuit for 20 years. In 1997, Daren was looking for a male vocalist and Randy was looking for a singer to showcase some of his songs. They met through a mutual friend and have been singing together since. In 2006, they were married. They became business partners as well, and Daren and Randy Live! was born. | |
