AccuRadio Song Of The Day-Lauren Talley


Artist:Lauren Talley

Song:Glorious God

Album:Glorious God


Lauren Talley grew up in Southern Gospel. She sang with her parents and since they retired, she has gone solo. She was born Dec. 11, 1983 in Nashville. Her parents are Roger and Debra Talley and they started The Talleys with Roger's brother Kirk Talley in 1984. Lauren was on the road with them as a child and sometimes appeared with them. The Talleys disbanded in 1993 so Lauren could go to high school like a normal teenager. But she wanted to go back on the road. So her parents reformed The Talleys in 1996 with Lauren as lead singer. Southern Gospel is mostly aimed at an older audience and it's unusual to see a young singer stay with it. They will migrate to CCM. Lauren has recorded solo albums since 2001 with Horizon Records which is the label her parents are on. It is only since her parents retired in 2020 that she has established herself as a solo act with the 2019 album Glorious God. She hasn't strayed too far from the Southern Gospel formula. She has a great voice but her music is standard Southern Gospel. She does tour with Bill Gaither and appear on his TV shows. But I would have thought she might try to appeal to a younger audience, I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree in Southern Gospel. Glorious God is available as a digital download. Here's the video for Glorious God by Lauren Talley.
