The Four Lads are
now celebrating 57 years in Show Business
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 theatres, 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".
