Matthews, Wright & King

Matthews, Wright & King were a studio assembly masterminded by Columbia Nashville producer Larry Strickland. Strickland and the label rounded up vocalist/guitarist Raymond Matthews (who was already contracted with Columbia to do a solo album), bassist/vocalist Woody Wright, and guitarist/vocalist Tony King. The Power of Love appeared in December 1991. The title cut made the Top 50. Dream Seekers followed in 1993, but soon after the trio dissolved. Tony King joined Brooks & Dunn's backing band in 1995; Woody Wright founded an inspirational country/gospel trio with Michael Sykes and David Ponder; and Raymond Matthews embarked on a solo career.
