TONY TORRE: ...Tenor vocalist extraordinaire...his leads and harmonies provide a finishing touch to every tune. 

Born in Brooklyn, New York, Tony started singing at a very early age, which led to his impressive vocal range.  In Brooklyn he performed with "The Charms" and "The Rhythm Express". In 1979 he moved to Long Island and performed with "Memories" "The Magic Moments" "The Dynamics" "The Satin Dukes" and "The Revisions".  He performed as lead singer and first tenor with "Randy and The Rainbows" (featuring Randy Safuto) from 1989 thru 1999.  Tony performed in all the major venues throughout the country including Atlantic City, Vegas, Madison Square Garden, Westbury Music Fair, and the Inaguration Ball for President Ronald Regan and the Summer Concert Series at the World Trade Center.  After retiring in 1999 he moved to Florida and joined "The Dukes of Harmony" where he met his good friend Jim McGreevey.  He later performed with "Doo Wop And Rhythm" and in 2006 he formed his own quartet "A Touch Of Class".  In 2008 he received a call from his buddy asking if he would like to jam with "The Saints". Shortly after, he was asked if he would like to become a full time member. 

He is currently singing lead and back up vocals with "Lola &The Saints", a group considered to be one of the very best in Florida.   And the beat goes on.........


JERRY LONG:
... Mr. Bass Man...Our "Sixty Minute Man" ... holds together the bottom end with an effortless ease...all the while...with a smile...from ear to ear!!!

Born in Harlem, New York.  Like most young guys, during the late 50's, Jerry started singing acapella doowop on the streetcorners, the stoops and in the hallways of Harlem with his neighborhood friends.  By age 20, he had moved to the Bronx.  He joined the army in 1965, was married in 1966 and was sent to Viet Nam shortly thereafter.  In 1969, Jerry joined the New York City Housing Police Department.          On one of his weekly visits to the 40th precinct, he encountered a group called "Street Blues" aka "The Doo-Wop Cops".  Sadly, Jerry left the group in 1990 when he retired & relocated to Ocala, Florida.  The remainder of Street Blues became the group now known as Milton Love and the Solitaires (Walking Along and The Angels Sang).  Fast forward to 2006, Jerry joins a group of guys from The Villages who had formed the acapella group, "Harmony". They did numerous engagements in and around The Villages, and then disbanded in the early fall of 2008. 

A short time later, Jerry was approached by  "Lola & The Saints" to audition for bass singer of their group...he became a full member of the group a few weeks later... The rest is history.
