Dave White) (first tenor) met at John Bartram High School and started singing together in the mid-1950s.

In December 1957, they received a call from Dick Clark to be a last-minute substitution for a no-show band on American Bandstand, and they performed it for a national audience.

The group appeared in the 1958 jukebox musical Let's Rock with Julius LaRosa, Paul Anka, and The Royal Teens.

White left the group sometime near the end of the band’s recording career in the early 1960s to concentrate on writing and production.

He was very successful in this venture, composing a number of hits, including "You Don't Own Me" for Lesley Gore, and "1-2-3" and "Like a Baby" for Len Barry.

It was parodied by the band Dash Rip Rock with their single entitled "Let's Go Smoke Some Pot", and by NRBQ during the 1973 energy crisis under the title "Get That Gasoline".

The group appeared in the 1973 Columbia Pictures concert film Let the Good Times Roll hosted by Richard Nader.
