Additional Details:
The Newbeats consist of three young men: Dean, Mark and Larry. During their high school days Dean and Mark played in the school band. Their mother taught them to play the guitar as kids, and soon they had mastered all instruments. Upon completion of high school, they decided to launch their careers in show business. Larry first met Dean and Mark when he stepped from the audience in Shreveport, La. to sing a number with Dean and Mark's Combo. This was his first attempt at singing although he came from a family where every member was musically inclined. The audience response was so great that Dean and Mark asked Larry to join their combo. The threesome went to Hickory Records with a tape they had cut in Louisiana. Wesley Rose was impressed with the boys and immediately rushed them into a recording session. Their first release was "Bread and Butter." Courtesy of Billboard.
