The Moody Brothers

During the 1980s, The Moody Brothers made numerous appearances on the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, TN and The Nashville Network's Nashville Now, On Stage and other music programs. They also performed at the White House for Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush.

In 1988, the Moodys recorded a historic album in Prague, Czechoslovakia with Jiri Brabec and Country Beat. The album Friends was the first such cooperative production between an American company, Lamon Records and what was then a communist state-owned record label Supraphon. The project earned critical acclaim and won the Moodys, along with the producers, engineers and studios involved in the project the Ampex Golden Reel Award.[2]

The Walt Disney Company offered the Moodys a featured concert performance role at Disneyland Paris in France when the park and entertainment complex opened in 1992.[3] The trio continued to gain international success with their music throughout the '90s.[4]

Since their time in France, the Moodys have mainly focused on individual careers in the new millennium. Carlton Moody is the lead singer and guitarist for Burrito Deluxe. Dave Moody is a Dove Award winning artist/songwriter/producer and indie filmmaker. Trent Moody teaches music in Indian Trail, NC and has a new fiddle album recorded with his father Dwight Moody. The brothers perform together occasionally, and have earned several Dove Award nominations for their recordings on their own and with George Hamilton IV.[5]
