Legendary Spinners and Manhattans to Perform at River Spirit Casino, 9/16
The legendary Spinners & Manhattans will be performing at the River Spirit Event Center on Friday, September 16th at 7 pm.
It should come as no surprise that The Spinners have always made timeless music. Their classic group sound and approach never loses its universal appeal. Throughout the years they have acquired twelve (12) gold records with hits on top of both Pop and R&B charts and they are one of the few groups who can boast of four lead singers. Today, original members Bobbie Smith, Henry Fambrough, and Pervis Jackson are joined onstage by lead singer Charlton Washington, high tenor Harold "Spike" Bonhart and a soul-infused 5-piece band.
Taking their name from the popular mixed drink, the Manhattans began their legendary musical journey after being spotted at Amateur Night at the Apollo Theater. They placed third in the competition, but their undeniable musical star power earned them their first recording contract. Joe Evans, a former Motown musician, had just started Carnival Records and eagerly signed the Manhattans. It didn't take long before their first major hit " I Wanna Be (Your Everything)" broke onto the Pop and R&B charts, and the hits just kept on coming with both "Searching For My Baby" and "Follow Your Heart" selling records by the hundreds of thousands.
