The Voices of Clouds were organized by Charlie Wells in 1954 in Panama City, Florida. After years of toiling the group released their first recording with the Songbird label (a division of the Peacock Record label). Many recording soon followed and so did demand for appearances. Later the group went on to record several albums HSE and Champ Records (owned by Hoyt Sullivan). The success of the albums "I Heard The Angels Singing" and "Someone To Care" positioned them as one of the top groups in the nation. HSE Records was considered one of the top labels at that time due to the success of their many artists: Tommy Ellison and The Singing Stars, Johnny Twillie and The New Whirlwinds, Willie Banks and The Messengers, etc..., but none were creating as much of a stir as Charlie Wells and The Voices of Clouds. Many other groups on the road learned to respect the talent of The Voices of Clouds. During this time the members of the group were trying to juggle being on the road while developing their family and church lives. Soon after the group became known as Deacon Charlie Wells and The Voices of Clouds. The group continued singing and traveling throughout the US and other countries. A few years later their personal ministries lead them to taking time off from singing. Charlie Wells was ordained into the ministry and became an assistant pastor then pastor of Wells Temple in Rochester, New York. Joe James, Sr. became active in his home church and construction business. The rest of the members went their own way but all continued in the service of the Lord. After years of working with other groups, Joe James, Jr. was led by the Holy Spirit to talk his dad, Joe, Sr and Rev. Wells to reorganize the group. After months of rehearsal they returned to the "gospel entertainment field". After adjusting to the new sound of gospel (without compromising their beliefs and style) The Voices of The Clouds made a triumphed return. In April 2005, the group took 1st place at Evangelist Barbara "Golden" Lewis' T.A.O. Pressing Toward Your Vision Conference (Rochester Gospel Music Workshop of America Chapter) in Rochester, New York. The previous recordings by The Voices of Clouds have been released and a new release (CD and DVD) was made avaliable in 2006. The Clouds has appeared Bobby Jones Show on the Word Network channel. In 2007 the clouds won Male Quartet Group on the PTY Vision Award in 2007 . The Voices of Clouds are member G.M.W.A. Also the group is a part of A.Q.G.C. under the direction of Bishop George Stewart , The Luther Barnes Fall Classic , Esther L. Wooten and many others christians functions.

I am so very pleased to have heard from you, and that you're still going strong. I've talked to Jimmy Carter of the Blind Boys Of Alabama since speaking to you, who was also pleased to hear that. Jimmy is not the kind of person to forget anyone. As I remember it, he was the one that mentioned Charlie Wells and the Voices of Clouds when we were talking about gospel music in the Rochester area. I told him how different it was since LittleJohn passed. Apparently many years ago, LittleJohn had The Blind Boys on the same program with The Voices Of Clouds. I was as stunned to hear him ask about them, as he was stunned when I told him the Wells family lived right next door to me in the late '70's on West High Terrace. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon, hopefully the program on the 20th of December, if the weather permits. Happy holidays to you and your families. J
