About The Lettermen
Hometown

Formed

Genre
Pop
The gentle melodies, light arrangements, and romantic heart of the Lettermen's close-harmony pop songs made them quite a successful group during the 1960s, when changing styles and tastes left many older listeners feeling a bit left behind in the music world. Not only was their Capitol Records debut, 1961's "The Way You Look Tonight," a Top 20 hit, it was their first of 20 appearances on the Billboard Hot 100 that also included the Top Ten singles "When I Fall in Love" (1961) and "Goin' out of My Head/Can't Take My Eyes off You" (1967). The group's appeal lasted for many decades beyond this initial commercial success, however, with founding member Tony Butala active in the Lettermen until his semi-retirement in 2019. ~ Marcy Donelson
