Nashville recording artists, the Colmus Family or as
they've been called, the Cosmos Family, the Comatosed Family, the Coleman Family and the Culumn Family, and yes, those
are all names they have been called. We're not making this stuff up. It's COLMUS. It's simple and easy to pronounce.
If you need help, here's a guide...COLE-Muss. That should clear it all up. The Colmus
Family began as the Colmus Sisters and Gospel Country. They began touring in the early 80's. In 1995, the group changed
their name to the Colmus Family.
This family band from Michigan/Kentucky still tours the United States
and Canada with their brand of Christian Country music. Their rich family harmonies and solid musicianship are strong foundations
to their music ministry.
The Colmus Family is not a southern gospel group or bluegrass group.
Nothing wrong with those styles but they are a Christian Country band. They call it country music with a JESUS kick. Mix up
some Buck Owens, Brad Paisley, Travis Tritt and George Strait. Then toss in some Oak Ridge Boys, Alan Jackson, Martina McBride and
Rodney Atkins and then throw in a positive message and you have their style. They play their own instruments live and do not
use backing tapes.
The Colmus Family is Edith Colmus Hunt, Lois Colmus Blount, Richard Hunt and Todd Hunt. Edith
plays keyboards and sings lead vocals and harmony. Edith's husband, Richard, plays bass and sings lead vocals. Their son,
Todd, plays lead guitar, mandolin, dobro and sings lead and harmony. Edith's sister, Lois, plays rhythm guitar and sings
harmony
The Colmus Family DOES NOT represent any religious denomination or organization,
only CHRIST. The songs that they play and sing are their message.
Their brand new CD is entitled
"Washed Clean." It features 10 songs(5 originals and 5 covers).
