Mylon began his musical career as a child, part of the Southern Gospel group, The Singing LeFevres. At age 16 he wrote the song, “Without Him,” a song that went on to be recorded by hundreds of artists. In 1970, Mylon wed his love of gospel with rock music, releasing one of the first Christian Rock albums (‘Mylon,’ often referred to as ‘We Believe’). He released several other albums in the ’70s that gradually strayed away from his Christian roots and featured very little spiritual content.
