For Your Ears Only
One of R&B; music’s most beloved and consistently popular vocal groups, The Whispers, began their legendary and timeless career in 1963. They perfected their tight harmonies on the street corners in the Watts section of Los Angeles and in night clubs in the San Francisco/Oakland Bay Area. Their vocal style harkens back to a more genteel era of crooning, preferring soft pillow talk and songs that speak to heartfelt emotions.  They are arguably the most celebrated R&B; balladeers of their generation and still make women swoon with their silky yet forceful tenors of twins Walter and Scotty. They are one of only a few “old school” groups that can boast of having over 40 years in the industry with a worldwide fan base, maintaining their vocal dominance and original members.Career Highlights include Seven Gold Albums, Two Platinum Albums, 12 Top Twenty Singles, 40 Charted Hits Since 1970, Four Decades of Pop & R & B Favorites, American Music Award Nominees, Soul Train Award Nominees, Grammy Award Nominees,2003 Vocal Group Hall of Fame Inductees, 2005 Regional Grammy Governors Award, 2002 NAACP Image Award.
