The Williams Brothers first appeared on stage in 1958 as The Little William Brothers (when they were all pre-teens). Their music is a modern twist on the styles of their music heroes, The Dixie Hummingbirds and the Mighty Clouds of Joy. The group is comprised of brothers Leonard, Douglas, and Melvin Williams, with cousin Henry Green. They opened the Blackberry Booking Agency (McComb, MS) in 1990, then later added a recording studio and started a record label. Leonard has produced several artists, most notably, Leomia Boyd.
