The Clark Family consists of Marvin, Deana, Leah, Tai, Jada, and Ellie. We are the owners of the Ohio Valley Opry, and out side of the show, we stay busy traveling and singing at churches, fairs, and festivals throughout.  We have our own recording studio, and  we help with Clark Music Company, Sama and Lynda Clark's music store in McConneslville, where Marvin gives guitar lessons. We attend church at Tabor Ridge Church of Christ.  You can check out our web site at:

Alicia Stevens sings on the OVO around 4 times a year.   She's a busy mom of two, a boy and a girl, and has an active singing schedule at churches and area events.  She is a graduate of Belmont University, and has a degree in Music.  She gives vocal lessons and is active in her church.   She resides with husband, Darren, and the children, in Lowell, Ohio.

Bill Baker has been singing since he could talk.   Classic country as child, rock and roll as a teenager, gospel as an adult-Bill has been around!  He's a super nice guy, and is a lot of fun.  As long as Bill is alive, "Earnest" will never die.  Bill spent many years in the state of Indiana, but now resides with his wife, Susie in Beverly, Ohio.  They have 5 adult children.  (Phewww!).

Rebecca Starlin is an all around good person, a great singer, and has been singing on the OVO since 05.  She sings a good mixture of classic country from the 70's, 80's, and 90's.  Rebecca is a veteran, and now lives in Athens county.

OJ Sidwell is a Perry County native, just outside the Morgan County line.  OJ has been singing his whole life, and always seems to sing just the right song for just the right occasion!  OJ works as a landscaper, and is finishing up on getting his degree.   He resides with his parents, and often appears with his dad, Randy who knows every Johnny Cash song written!

Britney Bennett is a 20 year old gal, from Plantsville, Ohio.  She sings a mixture of new and old country, and has been singing on the show since 05.  Brit works as a bank-teller, and has plans of attending college this fall.  Britney resides at home with her parents, Dave and Carolyn.

Unlce Doofus.  What can we say?   Appearing above with his comodian guitar, and his brief case, what more do we need to say???  Uncle Doofus is our resident comic, and he keeps us all in stitches constantly.  He's a great guy with a big heart, and is a terrific motivater.  Got the blues?  You won't hang on to them long with Uncle Doofus around!  He has lots of stories to tell of friends and family from his home in Booger-hole, Wv.  (How his wife Nina, deals with him, we'll never know!)

Samantha Maxwell has been singing on the OVO since she was 13 years old.  Sam is now attending school at Belmont University in Nashville, Tn., but when she is home, she regurlarly appears on the show.  She's full of energy, full of fun, and she's an all around great singer and performer.  Samantha lives at home with her parents in McConnelsville.

Matt Hansell is a regular on the OVO.  We call him the "good guy", beacuse he always wears a white hat, and Matt Coleman is the "bad guy", because he most always wears a black one.  Matt Hansell is a super person and perfomer, often singing songs of family and country.  Matt is married, and he and his wife, Melissa, have one son, named Clay, and one on the way!  The Hansell family reside in Marietta.
