I just can’t figure out which of The McCrarys is his grandparent (my money’s on Alfred McCrary).
I think I figured it out, and it’s not Alfred, it’s Charles (who wasn’t even in the band, but is one of the siblings), and his grandmother is Velma Taylor.

In any case, even if I’m wrong, it should at least say:
