BIOGRAPHIES

Langdon Reid             Bryan Kennedy               Wil Reid

Bryan Kennedy first met Wil and Langdon in Staunton,
Virginia, circa late 1970s, when he would travel with
his father to see the Statler Brothers perform their
world famous Happy Birthday USA 4th of July
celebrations.
 
Bryan's father, Jerry Kennedy, was the president of
Mercury Records in Nashville, Tennessee and the
Statler Brothers were recording artists for Mercury.
The Statler Brothers consisted of four members and
though they carried the banner of “brothers”, only two
were actual brothers:  Harold Reid and Don Reid.  Are
you starting to put two and two together?   Kennedy
and Reid.

That's right!  Bryan's dad is Jerry Kennedy, renowned
record producer and guitar player.  Wil's dad is
Harold Reid, bass singer and songwriter of The Statler
Brothers and Langdon's dad is Don Reid, the lead
singer and songwriter of The Statler Brothers.  Jerry
and the Statlers’ relationship began professionally in
1970 and forty-some odd albums later, their success is
still undeniable and country music listeners are
grateful and thankful for these talents coming
together.  

So basically, all this means that Wil and Langdon are
first cousins who are best friends with Bryan and this
makes them all like brothers. This might help explain
how these three fellas (Langdon, Bryan, and Wil) all
ended up to be accomplished songwriters, singers and
entertainers.  And as fate would have it, all three
working together on the hilarious and heart warming
MistleToe Roaster.

When you see MistleToe Roaster you will be pleased to
learn that these three really live up to the legacy of
their musical heritage!
