Stormy Weather, a Damon Runyon-esque quintet of Hoosiers from the steel mill area of Gary/Hammond, Indiana is the chief proponent of the nation's revitalized a cappella doo-wop sound. Growing up, they all idolized local residents, the Spaniels of "Goodnight Sweetheart, Goodnight" fame.

The group has recorded fourteen previous albums, including the highly touted seasonal record series entitled STREET CAROLS, which has become a holiday classic. Their CD, DOO-WOP & LOLLIPOPS has won numerous awards, including the Parents' Choice Gold Award and a NAPPA Gold Award.

They have starred in three nationally syndicated television specials: 40th Anniversary of Rock 'n Roll, Magic Moments and A Street Carol. The group was one of only 350 groups in the past 50 years to be selected for a major feature in the Billboard Book of American Singing Groups. The founding member, Henry Farag has authored a highly reviewed book, published by Indiana University Northwest entitled "The Signal, detailing the Doo-Wop sound, which was the subject of a segment on E! True Hollywood Story and VH-1.

The quintet has doo-wopped with such diverse stars as Smokey Robinson, Carl Perkins, the Pointer Sisters, Bill Cosby, Frankie Valli, Tony Danza, Dion, Whoopi Goldberg, the Gatlins, Kenny Rogers, Bruce Willis, plus many legendary rock 'n roll artists.

The group has appeared and their videos have aired on: Entertainment Tonight, Oprah Winfrey, TNN, the Today Show, Hollywood Insider, The E! Network, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, VH-1, WGN super station, and the Fox Network plus over 600 video commercial outlets around the country.

They have appeared at the White House for special Christmas and Easter presentations, four separate times. Voice of America has broadcast the group in a live, in-studio concert to the world with an estimated audience of 200 million! And, they had the distinct honor of appearing at the 100th Olympiad. Stormy Weather recently entertained the troops in Bosnia, Kosovo, Sarajevo, and throughout the Balkans, even singing on thousand-year-old street corners of Vienna and Amsterdam.

As Judy Massa, former program director for VOA put it: "They are a true slice of pure Americana."

The newest release from the group is entitled, Voice Activated - the standard in a cappella!

Award winning Indie director, John Waters (Hairspray) selected the group's original Christmas tune, "A Street Carol" for his holiday album entitled "A John Waters Christmas".

Steeped in the rock and roll roots, the group sings everything from Hank Ballard to Stevie Ray Vaughan, from the Drifters to Van Morrison and John Lee Hooker, as well as their own compositions. Stormy Weather follows the premise that the voice is the most expressive instrument there is. Accordingly, they keep the a cappella sounds of the street corner alive, well, and kickin'.

Appealing to most music formats, the group stays busy recording and performing at theatres, festivals, and on occasion, selected street corners around the nation and its the only a cappella group to bring Doo-Wop to the world stage.
