Artist Portrait

Randy Matthews

voc, g, bvoc, *1950 US
Singer / Musician / Songwriter of Rock and World

Randy Matthews is a christian singer-songwriter, guitarist, and pioneer of Jesus music. In 1971 Randy was signed as the first contemporary Christian artist to record for Word, a gospel label which had, up to that point, released spoken word recordings and albums of traditional gospel music. His first album was "I Wish We'd All Been Ready". With the release of his second album, "All I Am Is What You See", Word launched a new label called Myrrh Records, created specifically to tap into the musical interests of the burgeoning Jesus movement. Randy currently works under the stage name Red Beard, performing frequently at the Trade Winds Resort in St. Petersburg Beach, Florida and the Palm Island Resort. Recently, he released an album of pirate songs and tall tales called Red Beard Pirate King.
