The Willows still wowing audiences today with their unique blend of
R&B/Doo-wop. This New York based group formed in 1953 as The Five Willows are best known for their biggest hit "Church Bells May Ring" recorded in 1956, with a then unknown 16 year old Neil Sedaka playing the Chimes. The group enjoyed success with other tunes:
"My Dear Dearest Darling"/" Love Bells"/
"Rock Little Francis" and many others.
The Willows are still performing with all four original surviving members:
Tony Middleton, Richard Davis,and twin brothers, Ralph Martin & Joe Martin.
Under Musical Director/Arranger Michael Cee, The Willows are currently in the studio working on their upcoming CD release. Send us your comments, feedback, and perhaps a favorite Willows memory. Tour and booking information contact: C-Star Productions: Ceestar88@Yahoo.com.
We would like to thank you all on behalf of our Musical brother Joe Martin, for all the cards and get well wishes.
Tony, Richie, Ralph, Mike and the newest Willow, Desi..
