Canyon was an American country music group composed of Steve Cooper (vocals, guitar), Johnny Boatright (guitar), Jay Brown (keyboards), Randy Rigney (bass) and Keech Rainwater (drums), who replaced Randy Smith, their original drummer.
Canyon got their big break on the show Star Search with Ed McMahon, where they were the runner up to Sawyer Brown in 1983 for Vocal Band.
They were nominated in 1991 at the Academy of Country Music for Top New Vocal Duo or Group, along with Prairie Oyster and Pirates of the Mississippi, but lost to the Pirates of the Mississippi.
After Canyon disbanded, Rainwater and Britt joined the group Texassee in 1992, who would later change their name to Lonestar.
