About The Four Lads
The Four Lads were experts at close harmony and a cappella and were very much influenced by spirituals and gospel music. They scored a number of pop Top 100 hits during the early '50s, including "The Mockingbird" (1952), "Skokian" (1954), "Moments to Remember" (1955), and "No, Not Much!" and "Standing on the Corner" (both in 1956). Their initial break came while backing Johnny Ray on his early-'50s hits "Cry" and "The Little White Cloud That Cried" for Columbia Records. The group also recorded several long-playing albums, including 1962's Dixieland Doin's. Their success story included the sale of some 50 million singles and albums. After a number of changes in personnel, the original group finally broke up in 1977. In the mid-'80s, Bernie Toorish reactivated the Four Lads for the oldies circuit, though he remained the sole original member from the '50s lineup, performing until his death in 2025.
Members of The Four Lads include, or have included, Pat Kirby.
