Charlie then introduced the duo to Lonnie Simmons, who then invited the two to go to
Los Angeles...and their R&B career began with their first single, Grammy Award nominat-
ed "Don't Stop the Music" topping the charts and staying in the #1 Billboard position for
weeks and sampled by more than 22 artists.
They continue to record and produce music after returning home to Dallas, through their
Production Company - Yarbrough & Peoples Productions. However, their entertainment
careers broadened to stage plays and theatrical entertainment - and they performed as
actors and music arrangers in New York Off-Broadway and the Guggenheim Museum,
and toured the UK with the stage play Blind Lemon Blues (which was nominated for the
Au Delco Award).
They have now completed their very first Gospel CD with God-inspired songs of encour-
agement and wisdom. Like the CD’s before, this CD is loaded with awesome bass riffs
and beautiful harmonies…the sounds of Yarbrough & Peoples! "I'm In…I’m All The Way
In" is their first single, and it epitomizes where their hearts are today. They have truly
gone full circle, and their relationship with God is shouted from the rooftops in
praise...for the Grace, Mercy and Love that HE has always shown them. Their lives are a
testimony...their journey - one that is heard through their writing, their singing and their
music.
