About Buddy, Sharon and Jerry
Buddy Camp Born and raised in the Birmingham, Alabama
area. I have been involved in gospel music most of my life. Growing up in a Christian home, my mother (Doris Camp) was the
Pianst and Organist at our home church (Coalburg Ind. Baptist) where my father (Ruben Camp) was the music director also. I
played and sang with the Gospel Crusaders Quartet in the '70's, and also with a group called the Christians Quartet. My family
sang as a group through the years calling ourselves "The Camp Family" "imagine that". I have always loved Gospel music, and
still am trying to spread the Gospel of Christ through His words and with music. I feel God still has work for His people
to do. God bless and we hope to see you soon.
Sharon Brown I grew up in the Birmingham, Alabama
area, (Gardendale). I took piano at an early age, but Buddy has been my teacher and mentor with the bass and six string.
He always says he taught me guitar, but I taught him patience!! What a sense of humor! My earliest
musical memories are singing in church where my mother took us regularly. My father and grandfather were also strong
musical influences. My grandfather, Joe Jones, played the piano and organ and taught singing schools (shape notes) for many
years. Although I never heard my other grandfather (Idis Sims) play, he did play some mandolin and banjo; my Uncle
Roy played guitar, and many other cousins also played and sang with different bands. I love all types of music,
but bluegrass and gospel music are my favorites. We pray that you hear the message in our songs and sing along with us. Have
a wonderful, blessed day!!
Jerry Green "Make
a Joyful noise" - this is my goal. Growing up in rural Blount County, Alabama,
my musical memories are mostly of my brother (Harvey) playing
bluegrass music. I picked up some of the basics from him, then moved on to gospel which is my favorite music. I can praise
the Lord and enjoy the music at the same time. I hope in some way our music will touch your life. Just keep praying for us,
and we'll keep picking and praising the Lord.
A little history of the Camp Meeting Singers - Several years ago, Sharon wanted to play guitar and bass, so Buddy
began the task of teaching..........Sharon began to play and it started sounded like music.....all the while Buddy was learning
patience. They began singing and playing together at different places and then along came Jerry.......and Jerry began
learning and playing with the Camp Meeting Singers....all the while Buddy was back on the patience.
