In the 1950’s,
an acapella group called the Turbans coined the phrase “Doo
Wop”,
and made it synonomous for Rock and Roll singing groups who used thier voices
in place of back up accompanyment. Groups such as The Crests, Cadillacs,
Duprees, and many others became the pioneers for the vocalizing you hear
from many groups today such as N’Sync, The Backstreet Boys, O’Town and others.
However, the
music that helped pioneer crisp, clear, harmonizing and vocals lives on
today, and Brylcream is just one of the many groups around the world that
keeps the music alive, and gives it the respect that it is due.
Brylcream got
it’s start in 1992 with Tommy
“Cool T” Welter,
John
“Wopp” Mina,
Richard
“Richie” Beattie,
Gary
“G Man” Groneman,
and Roy
“Wolfman” Conklin.
Since thier beginnings, Brylcream has graced the stages across the Southeast
with many ledgendary performers such as The Coasters, Joey D and The Startlighers,
Davey Jones and The Monkees, Johnny Maestro and his Brooklyn Bridge, The
Temptations, The Four Tops, and many more.
Today, Cool T,
Wopp, and T-Bone join Richie, Alan, and Billy "Billy D" Louth,to form one of Southwest Florida’s most requested Doo Wop Groups....
