Arden, North Carolina (May 14, 2021) — For decades, The Talleys have been known as one of the top groups in Southern Gospel music, and as they look back on their storied career full of hits, it’s clear one notion has seen this award-winning group through: It’s all about the song.
With their latest installment in a stream of live single releases, The Talleys share a heartfelt rendition of their Dove Award-winning song, “Hidden Heroes.” First released in 2014, this song, written by Dixie Phillips and Sharon Phillips and a winner of the Singing News’ Songwriting competition, resonated with The Talleys because Roger's mother was suffering from Alzheimer's disease at the time they recorded it. They were heavily involved in her caregiving and felt an urgency to communicate that God sees the unsung role caregivers provide and will reward them in heaven for their faithful service. “Sharon Phillips [co-writer] and I married brothers — both are pastors. Week after week we’d see faithful individuals in our congregation, living a life of loving sacrifice,” shares Dixie Phillips. “Sometimes it was a mom caring for a special needs child. Sometimes it was a spouse caring for a seriously ill mate. And when our elderly father-in-law was diagnosed with dementia, we watched our mother-in-law fulfill her wedding vows and care for him. We wanted to write a song to let caregivers know that God saw them. He saw every sleepless night and counted every tear. No one was more surprised by how well the song was received than the two of us. We know it was ONLY JESUS. We will forever be grateful to The Talleys for recording it and sharing it with the world.” In this live version from The Talleys, lead vocalist Lauren Talley states, “To the person serving, you’re a hero,” before delivering a vocal that’s powerful in its sincerity, illustrating stories about servitude in the name of God. Each verse contains a tale of a particular person, describing the challenges they work through each day, and the inner hero they find within themselves that allows them to face the pain life can bring. At its core, “Hidden Heroes” is about the heroic ways we all face these challenges. It is our triumph of faith over life's struggles that keeps our faith strong, and that is recognized by God — “Hidden heroes are never hidden from the Father.” About The Talleys The Talleys have enjoyed eleven number one songs, and have received numerous Singing News Fan Awards and Dove Award nominations. They are frequently recognized for their appearances on the Gaither Homecoming video series and concert tour, as well as In Touch with Dr. Charles Stanley and John Hagee Ministries. They have appeared on RFD-TV's "The Music City Show," and have toured overseas to Norway, Northern Ireland, Italy and South Africa. The Talleys consistently take their music with a message to hundreds of concert and church audiences of all sizes across America each year.
As with the other songs in The Talleys’ live music series, a performance video of “Hidden Heroes” will follow the streaming release.
The Talleys began in 1984 and enjoyed many years of success, including a Dove® Award and numerous Singing News Fan Awards. Following a three-year hiatus, the Talleys began performing together in 1996 with the current lineup of Roger, wife Debra and daughter Lauren, and today the Talleys remain a mainstay of Christian music.
