The Platters were formed in 1953 in Los Angeles and signed with Federal Records. Songwriter Buck Ram heard their music and soon after had them audition for him. In 1955, the group changed labels and recorded the ballad “Only You” on Mercury Records. This recording was the beginning of stardom for the group that was to become the most popular vocal group of the fifties. The Platters had four number one songs and sixteen gold records, most of which can still be heard on any easy listening or oldies station throughout the country today.

The Platters have now toured in some 73 countries across the world and still spend much time abroad. On four different occasions, they have played for the Governor’s Convention and most recently for a private gathering of head of state in Washington, D.C.

Among their 20 movie appearances are “Rock Around The Clock” and “The Girl Can’t Help It.” In 1990, the Platters were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, where they so rightly belong. Currently, The Platters often perform in Las Vegas, NV casinos.
