The
Four Lads
From
college campuses to supper clubs, fairs to industrial shows, commercials
to concert halls, Tokyo's Latin Quarter to New York's Copacabana,
Glasgow's Empress Theatre to Notre Dame, Las Vegas' Sands Hotel
to Honolulu Stadium, Okinawa's Naha Theatre to Manilla's Aranete
Concert Hall... the Four Lads radio, television and live appearances
reads like a veritable "who's who" of the entertainment
industry.
The Lads launched
their professional career in 1950 singing in local clubs around
Toronto. Quite a few "Ups and Downs" later, the boys
had a chance for a tryout performance at New York's posh dinner
club, Le Ruban Bleu. There, Mitch Miller saw them and put them
on the million-selling Johnnie Ray records "Cry" and
"The Little White Cloud That Cried". After that, the
Lads were signed to their own recording contract, receiving their
first Gold Record in 1953 for "Istanbul". Their success
story includes the sale of some 50 million singles and albums
to date.
Today the
Four Lads continue their musical history bringing exciting and
truly "golden" performances to receptive audiences on
cruises, at conventions, night clubs, dinner theaters, concert
halls and Nevada's hotel casinos. More than 50 years later the
Lads' unique style captures hearts and brings back many a memory.
It is a magical formula that keeps audiences all over the world
in love with the Four Lads. They are still providing, to everyone
who sees them, many wonderful 'Moments to Remember".
