Ruby and the Romantics

Ruby and the Romantics

Ruby & The Romantics war eine US-amerikanische Gesangsgruppe, die zu Beginn der 60er Jahre in Akron, Ohio, gegründet wurde.

Edward Roberts, Robert Mosley, Leroy Fann und George Lee sangen bereits Ende der 50er Jahre unter dem Namen The Supremes zusammen. Dann hörte ein Plattenproduzent die Gruppe, brachte sie mit der Sängerin Ruby Nash zusammen und taufte die Gruppe um. Bereits die Debüt-Single "Our Day Will Come" wurde ein Nummer-Eins-Hit und ein Millionenseller.

Doch schon ein Jahr später verschwand die Formation wieder.
