Born on May 11, 1969, Randy Simpson was raised in a Christian home.  Randy's father, Terry, played the piano with The Gabriels, a Gospel quartet well known in the state of Pennsylvania for their unique style and harmonies.

As a young boy, Randy learned to love and enjoy Gospel music.  Unfortunately, he was tempted as a young teenager to try other styles of music.  As a result of that, Randy performed in heavy metal rock bands in bars and clubs.  In May of 1985, just short of his 16th birthday, Randy realized his need for salvation.  He also realized that it was his heart's desire to sing Gospel music.

Throughout the past 18 years, Randy has been a part of a number of Gospel music ministries.  From 1985 to 1986, he was a member of The King's Messengers; in 1986 he was a part of The Valley Four.  In 1987 Randy had a solo ministry for a couple of years before joining The Brothers in 1988 where he would stay for 11 years.  Randy's biggest decision came in April of 1999 when he decided to follow the Lord's direction into a full-time solo ministry.  Randy has been traveling all of the United States proclaiming the Gospel in song for over 15 years.
