The 5-man a capella group was originally formed in 1957 and enjoyed success with its 1959 Top Forty recording, "Code of Love" on Paul Winley's famous Derrick Records label. Paul Winley has the distinction of producing the legendary album, "The Paragons Meet The Jesters," often revered as the quintessential doo wop recording of all time.
In 1959, The Tribunes won top honors at Amateur Night at Harlem's famous Apollo Theater in New York City and continued to make nightclub appearances and performances at major entertainment venues until the early 1960s, when the group disbanded. In 1997, The Tribunes were re-established and are renowned for their authentic New York street-corner harmonies. They perform regularly in the tri-state area and have shared the stage with virtually all of the oldies artists and groups performing today, including: The Harptones, The Drifters, Johnny Maestro and the Brooklyn Bridge, The Platters and many more.
