Peter Noone is a multi-talented entertainer, who has been delighting audiences nearly all his life. At the age of fifteen, Peter achieved international fame as "Herman," lead singer of the legendary pop band Herman's Hermits. His classic hits include: "I'm Into Something Good," "Mrs. Brown, You've Got A Lovely Daughter," "I'm Henry VIII, I Am," "Silhouettes," "Can't You Hear My Heartbeat," "Wonderful World," "Just A Little Bit Better," "There's A Kind of Hush," "and "Dandy". Ultimately, Herman's Hermits sold over fifty-two million recordings. In all, fourteen singles and seven albums went gold.

One of the most beloved and respected Chicago bands ever to explode onto the national scene, The Buckinghams' live concerts pack power into 60s pop rock. Original Buckinghams Carl Giammarese and Nick Fortuna and their band continue to deliver fast-paced, solid shows that get crowds on their feet. Their #1 song, "Kind of a Drag" is a standout favorite that first made them famous. Next came seven national chart hits, 15 singles, and eight acclaimed albums. When Billboard Magazine named them "The Most Listened to Band in America," The Buckinghams became national favorites on The Ed Sullivan Show, The Smothers Brothers' Comedy Hour, American Bandstand, and more. The Buckinghams enjoyed phenomenal success with hit singles including the powerful "Don't You Care," the soulful "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy," and the national anthem of teenage love, "Hey Baby, They're Playing Our Song," on the national charts simultaneously.
