The Squires were an American garage band from Bristol, Connecticut, United States, operating in the 1960s.

One critic wrote: "The yearning lyrics and melody, vibrant jangling guitars and brisk propulsive beat all combine to make The Squires' 'Going All the Way' a transcendent rock n roll record.

Later Folcik and Robinson were replaced by Brian Blake (bass and vocals) and Paul Shea (organ and vocals) In April 1966, they drove to New York City and booked time at Capitol's studios, their main aim being to re-record their first single, but also recording several more songs at the same time, including Bouyea's "Going All the Way".

Atco Records liked their material, but insisted on a name change to "the Squires", and "Going All the Way" was released in September 1966.
