The
Lennon Sisters will take the stage at the Suncoast Showroom September 13 and
14.
The
Lennon Sisters made their TV debut on Christmas Eve 1955 on “The Lawrence Welk
Show” when youngest member Janet was just nine years old. Following their successful debut, Welk
professionally adopted the girls and The Lennon Sisters became regulars on the
program every Saturday night for the next 13 years.
Later,
the sisters entered the music scene with their first hit, "Tonight, You
Belong to Me" reaching #15 on the charts in 1956. Labeled "America's
Sweethearts of Song," they recorded their first album, "Let's Get
Acquainted," in May of 1957.
In
1961, the group’s single "Sad Movies (Make Me Cry)” reached #1, becoming
their highest charting record. Other
popular recordings include "Scarlet Ribbons,"
"Greensleeves," and Schubert's "Ave Maria."
Throughout
the ‘70s, The Lennon Sisters toured extensively and made regular performances
on “The Andy Williams Show.” The group
also appeared on “Family Feud,” “Hollywood Squares” and “Tattletales.”
The
Lennon Sisters are comprised of original members Janet and Kathy and younger
sister Mimi.
