IIIrd Sovereign formed in Atlanta in 1987, led by Patrick "Shorty" Lockett and Joe Wade. Their self-titled debut album came out in 1993, followed by "IIIrd Time's a Charm" in 1995 and "Overtime" in 1997. They recorded songs like "Destined To Suffer" and "Life Of Mortal."
In 2001, the group faced legal issues related to their finances. They've also drawn attention for lyrics that address social and racial topics. Their catalog includes later albums such as "Resurrected" from 2002 and "Lost and Found" from 2009.
Alongside Lockett on lead vocals and Wade on bass, the band's lineup has included Danny Robbins on guitar, Charles Gibson on keyboards, Louis Browner on drums, and Tony Reed on saxophone.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
