The only other local group to recently have the distinction of being featured by Collectable Records for national distribution has been the Skyliners in 2006. The Holidays are certainly proud to be in their company.
The Holidays enjoyed regional and national notoriety in the early 1960”s, recording and performing hit songs such as “Then I’ll Be Tired Of You”, “Lonely Summer”, “One Little Kiss”, “A Love I Never Had” written by Joe Rock and Jimmy Beaumont and “Miss You” which was their biggest hit and most requested song. The Holidays were invited to PBS/WQED TV to film “The Sound of Pittsburgh” and have remained a vital part of that sound to the present day.
The Holidays with three guys and a gal as frontline singers are backed by a group of (5) premier musicians who are second to none. In the words of Porky Chedwick, the ‘Daddio of the Radio’ and the King of Pittsburgh oldies, “The Holidays replicate the original sounds of the past with freshness and vitality. Their vocal harmony is outstanding and they’re keeping the sound alive for the next generation to enjoy”.
