WITH A DANCE FLOOR!
In 1966, The Stylistics were formed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, under the guidance of English teacher Beverly Hamilton.
After the success of the single, You’re A Big Girl Now, they produced the group's first album simply entitled The Stylistics. From that album came the group’s classic showstoppers, Stop, Look, Listen to your Heart, You Are Everything, and Betcha By Golly Wow. To say the least, the success of their first album was phenomenal including an unheard total of six hit singles and creating a reality of music industry’s Grammy Award nominations.
Shortly after, the ball rolled quickly with their second studio album entitled Round Two, and now referred to as “the Philly sound with sweet love songs" which led to the release of more legendary hits including You Make Me Feel Brand New, Break Up to Make Up, I'm Stone In Love with You & many MORE!
Today, the group’s many honors include the Philly Walk of Fame brass plaque embedded in cement on the Avenue of the Arts street in historic downtown Philadelphia while also appearing in an exhibit at the award-winning National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C.
Fast forward several decades, albums, CD releases, they continue to travel the country and worldwide sharing their group’s music legacy.
Special Guests: The Manhattans
Taking their name from the popular mixed drink, The Manhattans began their legendary musical journey. After placing third in a competition at the Amateur Night at the Apollo Theater, their undeniable musical star power earned them their first recording contract and shortly after, their first major hit, I Wanna Be (Your Everything), broke onto the Pop and R&B charts. From then on, the hits just kept coming with Searching For My Baby and Follow Your Heart selling records by the hundreds of thousands.
In a mere three years, songs like Baby I Need You and I ‘m The One Love Forgot firmly established The Manhattans a place in musical history. This earned the group NATRA’s “Most Promising Group” award and led them to set a new RIAA standard for platinum sales with their classic songs, There’s No Me Without You, Kiss And Say Goodbye, and Shining Star. Numerous awards and a Grammy proved again just how resplendent the group had become to their artistic community and the hearts of their fans.
