ANDREWS SISTERS: RUM & COCA COLA,

Mostly remembered for their music, rich in sweetness and optimism, the Andrews Sisters were loved by the many troops they tirelessly entertained during World War II. During their career, the amazing trio recorded more than 1,800 songs and sold over 90 million records. Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the Andrews Sisters began their music careers when they were still in their teens. In 1932, they began singing accompanied by the Larry Rich Orchestra. Together, they toured the Midwest and performed in vaudevilles. Another group of sisters, the Boswell Sisters, of

New Orleans, influenced the Andrews Sisters' Dixieland style. Soon, the Andrews trio broadened their style to include ballads of the swing era, South American dance songs, boogie woogie and other novelty sounds. They had Patty as the lead soprano, Maxene as the second soprano and LaVerne completed the sound with a resonant

contralto or bass. The legendary singing trio of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s are the most successful female singing group in history and were the worldΓ??s top selling group until the Beatles arrived.
