Richard Sterban is the legendary bass singer of the Oak Ridge Boys and prior to joining The Oaks in 1972, Richard sang with various groups, eventually joining J.D. Sumner and the Stamps Quartet, which afforded him the opportunity of a lifetime-the chance to sing with Elvis Presley and singing with him every night on stage as well as recording with the greatest entertainer in music history.
It was during this time in the midst of Elvis’ heyday that Richard was offered the position as bass singer for The Oak Ridge Boys, and he had to make a major decision-remain on the big stage or chase his own dream.
Well, 50 years later with numerous awards and over 41 million albums sold, and being inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. I would say it was worth chasing his own dream.
Let’s welcome the one of the most legendary bass singers in the history of music, the one and only Richard Sterban! www.richardsterban.com/rs/home.html

He was JDs best backup. Together, he and JD sounded great.

My first listen to Richard Sterban was when he sang King Jesus and Nobody wants to play rhythm guitar behind Jesus. What a great memory of some great harmony.

I love Richard. His voice sounds strong and during this interview. I remember trying to hit the low note on Elvira at about age 15. In his hay day Richard’s voice was second to none. Keep laying down the bottom end Richard and know so many bass singers have looked to you and you set the bar high.

What an amazing gentleman and the history of Richard Sterben's start of singing career! I've read his book 'From Elvis to Elvira '. And it is an amazing book to read!

Love this guy. We used to live not far from him in Hendersonville back in the 80's and 90's. Would see him twice at a boot store on Gallatin Road at Center Point. He is a really nice person who had always kept his personal life very private.

Awesome story!, Have always liked Richard & his bass voice, the best sounding bass voice in my opinion, & it's plenty low enough, J.D. Sumner is my all time favorite bass singer, seen the Oaks in concert 4 times, they put on an awesome show! All 4 of the Oaks are super nice men, I grew up liking bass singing & Richard had a big influence on my own voice, I'm no singer, lol, I wish I was, but I have a deep though, thanks to J.D. & Richard! 👍✌️

Many low basses start as boy sopranos. (I did.)
