Statler Brothers four voices as one By John Carter Times-Union staff writer Voices. Just voices, nothing else. That's the favorite part for the Statler Brothers' Don Reid, the one with the voice as low and rumbling as a distant thunderstorm. Reid said a treasured singing moment for him comes when the quartet starts rehearsing a new song on the tour bus.
Nothing is amplified.
There's no background music. Those four familiar voices will come together tomorrow for a concert at the Times-Union Center for the Performing Arts. And even though it does sell, the Statler Brothers' image wasn't dreamed up by a publicist. Not only have they remained in the same small Shenandoah Valley town where they grew up, they bought their old grammar school and turned it into their headquarters. I mean, we live here.
