Beyond Reach are two artists that are from the Southwest Missouri area. They have quite a history in music. However, this partnership was one that was derived from directions that both of these artists wanted to take. Both of these artists, Larry Lee and Randle Chowning were former keystone members of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils, a group that merged country and rock in a way that became very popular during the 1970s. They still have a large following today and have OMD revivals from time to time.

Their first album, titled the same as what the pair goes by, is a diversion from what the OMD did in the past. However, you can still hear the roots of the Daredevils inside. It is a melodic work that is said that both of these artists did that was "full circle" from the past. Larry Lee states that "We just took this work to it's natural conclusion".
Both of these artists are still active in other realms, including revivals of the OMDs as well as other work such as the "Vinyl Kings" and other work including individual work. Although they have only released one album together so far, there is possibility that others can follow. That will depend upon these two artists.
They have a website set up which has more information:
