Cavin Yarbrough and Alisa Peoples Yarbrough both started en-
tertaining at an early age. Alisa’s early life musical experienc-
es were in Gospel music – traveling, performing and attending
workshops with such greats as James Cleveland and Mattie
Moss Clark. She also performed with the Texas Northeast gos-
pel Chorale Ensemble (a community choir), as well as her fam-
ily group “The Peoples Singers”. Cavin followed his musical
dreams after training in the church, and toured with Leon Rus-
sell, where he met Charlie Wilson and the Wilson Brothers
(the Gap Band). Charlie Wilson later introduced Cavin & Alisa
to Lonnie Simmons (Total Experience Records) who signed the
duo to Total Experience Productions…and the story began.
