It was a different era. The British Invasion had started, led by The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Elvis had finished his stint as a soldier, and the music was changing. Johnny Rivers of Baton Rouge, LA goes all the way to #2 with his cover of Chuck Berry's song "Memphis Tennessee". Folk classic "The House of the Rising Sun" is covered by Newcastle, UK blues band The Animals and hits #1 in the US & UK. Texan Roy Orbison tops the charts for the final time in the US & UK with the single "Oh Pretty Woman". The Victors Combo formed in a small Tennessee garage playing the music of 1964, the music you grew up with!
It started in 1964 when Wendell Harris bought a 1962 Fender Stratocaster and began learning to play. His little brother, Randy, would rush home from school, pull the "Strat" from under his brother's bed and play along with The Ventures, Johnny Rivers and the Beatles. Hurrying to place the guitar back exactly as he found it before his brother came home, Randy would start to practice on an old drum set. The brother's started playing with another family member and guitarist, Eddie Foster, and with that The Victors slowly came into existence. Later, Wendell switched to bass guitar, and the trio added the final link in The Victors, drummer Tommy Knowles.
The Victors became one of the many popular garage bands around the mid-state in the mid 60's, becoming the "house band" for Mt. Juliet's Teen Town. They played throughout the mid-state, and became one of the busiest bands in the area.
In 1966, The Victors added keyboardist/bass guitarist James Swain and drummer Raymond Unland. The Victors continued to play into the 70's, when outside obligations began to draw the band apart. Randy and Raymond continued to play with several different bands, but the magic that was The Victors was lost.
In 2013, a group of musicians again came together under the name of The Victors. Randy Harris, the only original Victor still performing, joined Tommy Oakley (Guitar), Rodney Thomas (Drums) and Auston Adcock (Bass) for an appreciation gig in Mt. Juliet, and the spark was apparent. They added keyboardist Steve Johnson, and became the lates

Randy Harris, the only original Victor still performing, joined Tommy Oakley (Guitar), Rodney Thomas (Drums) and Auston Adcock (Bass) for an appreciation gig in Mt.

In 2015, Austin left to pursue other musical interests and John Kelly joined The Victors adding a new dimension to the band with his solid bass line and vocals. Tommy left the band in 2022 and was replaced by ace guitarist Randy Brasfield. Rodney left the band for medical reasons in 2023 and was replaced by one of the most solid drummers in the business, Gary Brewster.
John retired in 2024 and was ably replaced by Jan Brasfield on the Fender Bass, In 2025 power vocalist Shannon Sullivan brought a new broader direction to The Victors. Other obligations pulled Shannon away in 2026, and was replaced by her equally talented daughter, Jade Sullivan.

Even with all the personnel changes, one thing has been constant, original member Randy Harris. Randy has traveled the entire gambit of music, from rock to country to contemporary Christian. He has played all over the United States. One of his fondest memories is having the opportunity to play on two tours of Afghanistan, Kuwait, Iraq, and Germany with the legendary Charlie Daniels Band, and being asked to perform with the band on the Grand Ole Opry. His rock solid rhythm guitar and vocals have been the cornerstone of the Victors sound since 1965.
Today's Victors perform music from the 60's to the 90's. You'll hear songs from Chuck Berry to Journey to Ray Charles. From The Beatles to The Temptations & Hall and Oats. From Brooks & Dunn to Lynyrd Skynyrd, Neil Diamond, Fleetwood Mac and The Doobie Brothers. Whatever your taste in classic rock n roll, you'll find it with The Victors!
