Rory Seldon

Inspired by artists such as Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles, Rory Seldon took up an interest in keyboards and synthesizers. He then formed a group called Intercession with members of his home church, St. Philip Lutheran in Compton, CA. They played at various functions and churches in the Los Angeles area. Later, the group expanded to include members of other Christian denominations, changed its name to Inner Session, and began playing for larger audiences. Although the music was a form of contemporary gospel, it was often spoke of as different and refreshing.
