The Morris Family Biography
Born and raised in Northwest Florida, Sonny was inspired to sing and play
guitar by his parents. It was told his Mother taught his Dad to play the fiddle.
Sonny came from a large family several of which play instruments and sing.
Though his first love was gospel music, he was involved for many years in
country music with a band of his own that played regular in his local area. In
1996 he gave his heart to Jesus and gave up country music and has renewed his
love for gospel music. The Lord has blessed his life and has given him the
talent for writing songs, several of which are on his first C.D.
Linda says she was so young when she started singing she can't remember "ever
not singing". She is a "preacher’s kid" and has sung in church most of her life.
Born and raised in northwest Florida she sang for weddings, funerals, and family
functions. For a very short time she sang country music, but soon realized that
singing gospel music was her calling.
She moved to Alabama and sang solo until Sonny came into her life, at which time
a duet team was born. Tim Sellers completed this group and made it the trio that
it is today. She loves music and loves working with Sonny and Tim.
Although Linda is the choir director in her church she still finds the time to
sing. God has truly blessed her and she seeks His will.
Tim has been singing southern gospel music all of his life. Being raised in a
church where singing was a must he became interested in singing at a very early
age. Having his first solo in a Bible school program (On the wings of a Dove)
was all it took to light his fire. He credits his singing to the gospel group
“Gospel Singing Gilmore’s”. Tim loves to hear the family’s unique blends of
harmony.
According to Tim there’s nothing better than standing on a stage singing the
Gospel to a crowd of people that enjoy listening to the great sound of Gospel
music. Not only does Tim enjoy southern gospel music but he also enjoys the
sound of the mandolin in a good Bluegrass group. He loves the anointing that
“The Primitive Quartet” has in their music. He said “ I could sit and listen to
them all night.”
Tim has a family that supports him in his music and travels with him most of the
time. If you see him on stage usually you’ll see his Mom working the table. He
also credits his singing to his family for being so supportive to him and the
music he loves so dear.
