Geron Davis
 

I have always enjoyed his music. Does anyone know his background? Just wondering,... schooling etc.:choir

Geron grew up the son of a UPC minister. His teenage years at least he lived and went to school in the Savannah, TN area where his dad still pastors a UPC church. He attended Bible school in Jackson, MS. He was quite talented even as a young kid on the piano.

and now? I take it he is no longer UPC? How is his music percieved by the UPC since I do still hear many of his song being performed?:choir I think he has written some of the most beautiful lyrics I have ever heard.

I know he lives in the middle TN area and if I'm not mistaken attends Christ Church in N'ville. He has written some beautiful songs and I think a lot of UPC churches do sing his material. I don't know if he is "used" in UPC churches with his group in concert or with choir clinics. I would say most likely not in conservative churches.

As far as Geron Davis is concerned, I have gotten out all of my old cassette tapes and record LPs and put them on my computers hard drive, so that I can make CD's of them. I can still remember my pastor attending "because of the times" meetings at The Pentecostals of Alexandria in the 1980's and bringing back music tapes for us to listen to.

I have thee Davis/Pedigo albums (When he sang with his then wife becky Davis and Tim Pedigo , they formed a group called Davis/Pedigo)

I USED to have a bunch of "because of the times" music cassettes when he was the minister of music at The Pentecostals of Alexandria UPC church in the 1980's...but they fell apart!

He really did some fantastic tunes such as "Flame in the night" , " Walls come down", "Keep Believing" and a ton of others I wish I could have been able to keep! One that I WAS able to find and keep was "Watergrave" with Sis. Mickey Mangun singing and Geron and his band playing.

They also have this and other tunes when he was at the Pentecostals of Alexandria here at dianas site! If you want to hear some of the songs in the 1980's he did while he was at the Pentecostals of Alexandria...check it out. There are four web pages of older POA stuff, but you have to look for it, as they are scattered on the site.

A good friend of mine, Rod Milbourne helped Gerons dads church out for a little while, because they did not have a music minister. Gerons dad has a really nice church from what I am told.'

Looking at the picture on his website, he now sings with a group called "kindred souls"...I don't think he is UPC anymore.

Here is that site:

According to their website they attend Christ Church in Nashville. Geron lead worship at the church we attended 5-6 years ago, one weekend when our leader was out of town. Great job, definitely with the OP flavor.

i went to school with geron and becky, they were exceptionally talented and annointed, i have known him since i was a teenager, his father pastored in west tenn, and was a good man, havent kept up with him since he left alexandria, moons ago, dt:hypercoffee

Geron produced 2 songs on my last CD. He is doing better than ever. He stays very busy on the road lifting up Jesus. He attends Christ Church in Nashville.

I have been trying to track down soundtracks of a couple of his older songs. I have tried his website, and recieved no answer. Would love help with contacting him or his company with this request.:ty

Check MySpace. At one time I know he had a page.

I didn't know he was divorced. Is this recent?

I didnt know that either! I think that was a mistype... I hope...

Well unless its new news.. they are still together in the pics on the website...

This is nothing but curiosity. I was wondering if he and Becky are still together. He is one of the greatest talents ever. Not only personally but also the way he can make a group of people sound. She was the perfect match voice wise. They had such an incredible sound. I do the music at our church and still constantly mix in their music. thanks

Again I am not positive and Sandra would definitely be the one to know but his myspace said married too... and the website has tons of pics of them together so I am pleased to say it looks as if they are together still :)

Chill folks! :reaction

Geron and Becky are still married! :)

We werent upset... someone asked so I looked around and told them it appeared to be so :)

Didnt say it was fact or not fact... just appeared :runhills

I didn't think you were upset, and I'm sorry if it appeared that I thought so! :)

It didnt appear you thought so I just wanted to let you know what I thought in case you thought I thought you thought I was upset... follow me?!:snapout

They never ever seperated and are NOT divorced.
They are doing great.

He produced 2 songs on my last CD and we are very close friends. Yes, they are still together.

I saw you say something about it the other day so that is why I directed them to you... :) Thanks

EXCELLENT!!!! SO GLAD TO HEAR IT!! Thanks for the info.:thumbsup

Well I had heard that he was divorced from her, but I was wrong apparently. Sorry for the confusion.

Becky Davis has a voice I have always loved.I remember hearing Mickey Mangun say that Becky was her favorite singer.

One song that I still have of her's is "don't stop praying for me" ...I love that song. It is very powerful in it's message.

Geron's group "Kindred Souls" is made up of Geron, his wife Becky, Geron's sister and her husband.

They attend Christ Church Nashville but travel a lot so are not there many weekends.

A few years ago they started a Youth Choir at CC that performs a few times a year at church including the annual CC music conference and the last two years the Youth Choir has toured some in the summer. I beleive the Youth Choir CD that came out last year (the group is called Prayze Choir I think) was nominated for either a Dove award or a grammy. I forgot which.

Becky and Geron Davis
 

Just wondering if anyone knows how I can get a copy of the old Davis/Pedigo recording. I am specifically looking for "Don't Stop Praying for Me".
Any help would be much appreciated!
