Cliff Foenander

Cliff Foenander (1934 – 21 November 2000)[1] was a Sri Lankan musician who performed in South East Asia and Las Vegas.

South Asia's oldest radio station, Radio Ceylon (now the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation) gave Foenander his first exposure inside Ceylon and across South Asia, including India.

Broadcasters Vernon Corea, Jimmy Bharucha and Tim Horshington played his songs and interviewed him on their radio shows.

The Fabulous Echoes gained international exposure playing in Las Vegas in the United States of America, also performing with rat pack members Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr,[2] with Ella Fitzgerald[2] and the great "Satchmo", Louis Armstrong.

[2] Foenander's nephew, Robin Foenander, performs in Australia and has released several CDs and a country music song, "Further Down The Road", with the folk music artist Keith Potger, who was a founder member of the Seekers and the New Seekers.
