MusicWorks Concerts Presents: The Drifters

The Drifters, one of Rock & Roll’s founding vocal groups, is once again touring! Through a historical journey, the group’s ongoing story has covered the entire spectrum of Rock & Roll. They were the first musical group to include string instruments into Rhythm & Blues music with their hauntingly beautiful song There Goes My Baby. They were the first musical group to sell two million records with their pop classic Up on the Roof. Along with fellow inductees The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Bob Dylan and The Supremes, The Drifters were in the first class of Rock & Roll legends to be initiated into the Hall of Fame and the first African American group to be inducted. Their classic tune Under the Boardwalk is the most played R&B record of all time! You’ll also hear This Magic Moment, Stand by Me, Spanish Harlem and many more!
