From Michigan and Ohio, SWITCH originally consisted of Founder, Gregory Williams, Bobby DeBarge, Phillip Ingram, Tommy DeBarge, Eddie Fluellen and Jody Sims.
After the break-up of the RCA Records group “White Heat” (which was named and managed by the late music legend Barry White) determined to chase his dreams and stay in the record business Gregory, envisioned and soon after formed SWITCH in December 1976.
Upon obtaining a small budget, Gregory relocated each handpicked member of his new band from their individual hometowns to Mansfield, Ohio. After rehearsing, recording and completing an eight-song demo, Gregory, along with Jody flew to Los Angeles where they (within two weeks of their arrival) met Jermaine Jackson. Jackson immediately took the act to Motown Records where they were signed by Berry Gordy Jr. and managed by his daughter and son-in-law Hazel Gordy Jackson and Jermaine Jackson.
