Country Faith Tom Stipe, Scott Lockwood, Chuck Butler |
Two Roads (from Maranatha 1)
Another group to be formed from JOY was the band Country Faith. The group was comprised of Scott Lockwood former lead guitarist of JOY. I might add Scott Lockwood was a David Crosby look alike. Often after a concert people would be drawn to Scott thinking one of the Crosby, Stills, & Nash were playing music in a Jesus Band. Scott would explain and some were disappointed by mistaken idenity.
