AboutBorn July 1, 1942, in Pacoima, CA, Andrae Crouch got his musical start at his father's church, singing, playing piano, and before ten years of age, writing his own songs. Crouch founded the Disciples in 1965 with Perry Morgan, and Bili Thedford. They were introduced to Light Records founder Ralph Carmichael. Sherman Andrus and Reuben Fernandez were added to the group in time to record their first album, Take The Message Everywhere, in 1968. They were subsequently replaced by Andrae's twin sister Sandra in 1970. Sherman Andrus went on to join the Imperials. In 1972, singer Danniebelle Hall, trumpeter Fletch Wiley, Harlan Rogers and drummer Bill Maxwell joined the Disciples.
The Disciples disbanded in 1979 and Andrae continued on with a solo career.
