The Archers (musical group)
The Archers were one of America's earliest Contemporary Christian music groups. They were originally brothers Tim and Steve Archer, Nancye Short and Billy Rush Masters. After Masters and Short departed in 1977, sister Janice Archer joined.
They enjoyed greater longevity than most of the pioneering CCM artists, recording chart hits in the decades of the 1970s, '80s, and '90s.〔Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Music; Powell; pp 46, 47; Hendrickson Publishers; Pap/Cdr edition (August 2002) ISBN 1-56563-679-1 ISBN 978-1565636798〕 Their hits included, "Jesus Is The Answer", "Little Flowers", "It Wouldn't Be Enough",〔Reunion for Reunion, Contemporary Christian Music Magazine, February 1991; "In The News" -Paul Baker〕 "Fresh Surrender", "Stand Up!", and "Heaven In Your Eyes".〔Powell, p.47 Hendrickson〕 Former ''Maranatha! Music'' artist and CCM pioneer Erick Nelson defined The Archers' role in the development of contemporary Christian music as representing one-half of a convergence: traditional vocal groups like The Archers got hipper while the hippie rock groups (like the Maranatha bands) got more mellow—eventually both evinced the polished, commercial sound that would be identified as stereotypical contemporary Christian music.〔Powell, p.47, Hendrickson〕
==Early years==
Growing up the sons of a pastor in the San Joaquin Valley of northern California, Tim and Steve Archer began singing in their father’s church during their childhood. Eventually they branched out to other churches in the San Francisco Bay area. In the mid-1960s they spent their summers touring with their older brother Gary as the gospel trio, "The Archer Bros." This was a pivotal period in the group's evolution to what eventually became known as contemporary Christian music, since it was the first time they began to incorporate their own electric accompaniment, a rare introduction to evangelical Christian music of the time.〔http://pages.prodigy.net/steveund/archers/biography.htm Bio Archers.org captured 26 February 2007 Licensed name was "The Archer Bros.〕 In 1966, Tim and Steve entered a talent search contest and placed second nationally.〔http://www.stevearcher.com/bio.asp Steve Archer Bio Steve Archer.com. Captured 4 March 2007〕 In 1967 with both Tim and Gary playing guitar they began an evolution toward an even more Contemporary sound. Before long (with Gary moving into artist management), they took on additional personnel, drummer Fred Satterfied and guitarist Billy Rush Masters and Steve Smart then later adding vocalist Nancye Short after Smart's departure, taking the name The Archers.〔Archers.org〕
