South Sixty-Five's origins trace to Delious Kennedy, a member of the
R&B groupAll-4-One , who wanted to form the band. He first picked brothers Brenton and Stephen Parker, and later held a nationwide talent search to find the other three members. All five members were in place by 1997. A year later, the group'seponymous debut album was released, reaching a peak of #70 on the "Billboard"Top Country Albums charts. The album produced three minor chart hits.In 2001, South 65 released its second album on Atlantic. Titled "Dream Large", the album included a cover of
Charlie Rich 's 1973 single "The Most Beautiful Girl ", a cover which peaked at #54 on the country charts. After the album's release, the members of South 65 parted ways due to the closure of Atlantic Records' country division. Urie began a solo career, while Leslie joined another country group calledRio Grand .Discography
