Brother Phelps was an American country music duo from Edmonton, Kentucky. The duo consisted of brothers Ricky Lee Phelps and Doug Phelps, both vocalists and guitarists. Both brothers had left the Southern rock band the Kentucky Headhunters. In 1993, Brother Phelps charted with its debut single "Let Go", which reached a peak of No. 6 on the Billboard country music charts. In all, the duo charted six singles between 1993 and 1995 (although only one other single reached Top 40), in addition to recording two albums on Asylum Records. Brother Phelps disbanded in 1995, with Doug rejoining the Kentucky Headhunters as lead singer, and Ricky Lee assuming a solo career.
