The Drifters
As one of the biggest selling bands of all time, The Drifters have collated a huge catalogue of over 50 hits, including timeless classics such as ‘Saturday Night at the Movies,’ ‘Under The Boardwalk,’ ‘On Broadway,’ ‘Up on the Roof’, ‘Come On Over To My Place’ and ‘Kissing In The Back Row of the Movies.’
The Drifters have sold in excess of 214 million singles and 114 million albums across the world and are also one of the longest serving bands in history.
The group was formed in 1953 by lead singer in the Dominoes Clyde McPhatter and Ahmet Ertegun - founder of Atlantic Records under the management of former jazz singer George Treadwell.
Early recordings included songs such as ‘Lucille,’ ‘Money Honey,’ ‘Such a Night’ and ‘Honey Love.’ The Drifters' career was quickly established and they became one of the most popular acts in the charts and on stage.
A number one R&B chart single, ‘Adorable’ followed thanks to the outstanding songwriting talents of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, who would later take over the job of producing the group.
