description: You know where they ended up. This is the story of how they got there. James Dean Jay Byrd was born October 28, 1967, in the broom closet of the Okey-Dokey, Texas, VFW hall during a preaching contest in which his father was competing. Steven Cheslik-DeMeyer was born March 22, 1968, in the upstairs bedroom of his parents unfinished farmhouse in Kornflake, Indiana. Being the son of an itinerant tent revivalist, Jay Byrd grew up traveling Texas with his family. Being the son of farmers, Steven spent his early years on the farm. But a vision of biblical proportions sent Jay Byrd, in his Uncle Joes lucky green dress, on a journey to a pumpkin patch in Circleville, Ohio, where Steven--on his own journey--was waiting. A terrible thunderstorm brought Jay Byrd and Steven together, but music kept them together. They found that the songs they wrote and the way they sang together was special, so they made their way together to New York City and started performing together as the duo YALL. Based on actual events, The Good the true story of YALL tells the story of how two voices that were born to sing together found each other.
