Formed in 1953, The Drifters are a trend setting Rhythm & Blues group with numerous chart-topping hits to their credit. First entering Billboard's Top 40 in June 1959 with 'There Goes My Baby", The Drifters went all the way to the number two position. The hits were non-stop as the Drifters rose in popularity on Billboard's Top 40 on the Atlantic record label.

In September of 1960, The Drifters hit again with, "Save the Last Dance for Me", a number one recording that spent fourteen weeks on Billboard's Top 40. "Up on the Roof", made 1962 a memorable year followed in 1963 by the ever-popular "On Broadway". In July of 1964 The Drifters entered the Top 40 again with the unforgettable "Under the Boardwalk", a number four hit single that spent twelve weeks on the charts."

Twenty-five of their 37 hits reached the top ten, and five topped the charts at number one. Innovations such as the string section the group used on "There Goes My Baby" influenced the soul sound developed by Phil Spector and Motown Records during the 1960s. Although hits stopped coming for the group after 1964, the Drifters continued to draw fans through performances in various combinations in England and the United States.

Since their chart-topping days, The Drifters have continued to entertain thousands on the concert stage and at corporate events and conventions from coast to coast. Combining their million selling hits with current chart favorites, The Drifters leave audiences everywhere filled with nostalgia and hungry for more.
