The Shirelles
Saturday, February 6, 2010 at 8pm

Performance sponsored by Splash Café and Q104.5 FM

 

The Shirelles were the first major female vocal group of the rock and roll era, defining the so-called girl group sound with their soft, sweet harmonies and yearning innocence.  Their music was a blend of pop and R&B, doo-wop and smooth uptown soul that appealed to listeners across the board, before Motown became a crossover phenomenon with white audiences.  The quartet formed in New Jersey in 1958 and released a string of hits including "Baby It's You," "Mama Said," "Foolish Little Girl" and the #1 Pop hits "Will You Love Me Tomorrow" and "Soldier Boy.”  The Shirelles were named "Best Female Group" five years in a row by Cashbox and Billboard and were the first girl group to have a number one single on the Billboard Hot 100.  They were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.
