America has rediscovered The Buckinghams, like opening a time capsule from 40 years ago and finding everything special you placed there with care, just like it was 1968 all over again.

Carl Giammarese and Nick Fortuna take you down memory lane once again to the heyday when your greatest worry was whether you had a Saturday night date and what to wear. With rock n’ roll anthems like “Don’t You Care,” “Hey Baby, They’re Playing Our Song,” and “Mercy, Mercy, Mercy,” you can go back in time. When you hear the familiar Chicago horn sound they made famous on the opening bars of “Kind of a Drag,” their number one chart-topping hit, you remember why Billboard magazine named The Buckinghams “The Most Listened to Band in America” in 1967. Columbia Records was the home for most of the band’s hits, and “Time and Charges,” “Portraits,” and “In One Ear and Gone Tomorrow” are among many prized albums in the collections of America’s youth, now gently matured.

Still looking better than ever, Giammarese and Fortuna inspire us that “60 is the new 40,” as they have more energy than ever in concert, fueled by their passion for performing that makes you get off your chair and just dance the night away. Forty years ago, as Carl was on lead guitar and Nick was on bass, Dennis Tufano sang vocals and Marty Grebb played keyboards, sax, and sang, while John Poulos brought his trademark energy to the drums.

For the past 30 years, The Buckinghams have been united without personnel changes, a remarkable achievement for any band. Carl Giammarese, original lead guitar/vocals, adds dazzling lead vocals to shining lead guitar riffs. Giammarese continues to hold audiences spellbound on all the hits, pouring his heart and soul into audience favorites from the 60s including “When a Man Loves a Woman,” and “I Knew You When.” Nick Fortuna, original bass guitar/vocals, adds pulsating bass rhythms and contributes smooth vocal harmonies on the hits, then takes a solo drive on the “Expressway to Your Heart,” and does an unforgettable version of “Domino” that makes those 60s memories come alive.

Joining founding members Giammarese and Fortuna are Tom Scheckel, pounding out resounding beats on his monster drums, Bob Abrams, adding strong tenor vocals to songs like “I’ll Go Crazy,” along with his signature guitar playing, and Bruce Soboroff, blending harmony and background vocals in the swells of the orchestra found in his keyboards. Their music sounds as good today as it did back when you first heard the hits.

Then and now, you love The Buckinghams. Fans first watched them on “The Ed Sullivan Show,” Dick Clark’s “American Bandstand,” and “The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.” Through the years, fans saw them on tour with Gene Pitney, The Beach Boys, Sonny and Cher, Tom Jones, and Neil Diamond. Later, the newly reunited Buckinghams were part of the “Happy Together Tour,” one of the 10 top grossing tours of 1985. In 2001, The Buckinghams were favorites on the Solid Gold 60s tour, along with Tommy James and the Shondells, Herman’s Hermits featuring Peter Noone, Gary Puckett and the Union Gap, and The Grass Roots.

Today, The Buckinghams continue touring the country, whether festival, arena, casino, or corporate event. Their song list always includes their 8 chart-topping hits, plus

depending on the venue, can include medleys by: Three Dog Night, Chicago, The Beatles, Motown favorites, or new songs from their latest CD, “Reaching Back.” This CD features studio recordings of their 5 biggest hits, and 8 new songs, written by Giammarese in that trademark Chicago horn style, dedicated to the fans who keep The Buckinghams’ music live and well.

You’re never too old to be young again, and with the high-energy sound and inspired performances by The Buckinghams, you will soon be singing “I’ll Never Say Goodbye” right along with them. They’ve never forgotten their Chicago roots, but the group formerly known as “The Royalty of Rock and Roll” has grown up into one of America’s most treasured 60s groups.

Join them in concert today, where the audience still sings, “I love you, yes I do, I do,” as the background vocals to “Susan” and “oooh, my, my, my, my, baby” on “Don’t You Care,” They won’t have any “Mercy, Mercy, Mercy” on you if you don’t know the background vocals to “Kind of a Drag.” Hear them for yourself, live in concert. Hey Baby, they’re (still) playing your song. Ladies and gentlemen, The Buckinghams! .________________________. (Bio contributed by Dawn Lee Wakefield)

I have been a fan 4 ever. I first saw you in concert in Green Bay, WI back in the 60's at a high school dance where we actually danced all night to your music. The name of the school was "Premontre". I had the most fun in my life at that dance. I was 16 and enjoying life and the music. Today I try to get to your shows when I am able. Last I saw you was in Milwaukee, with Hermans Hermits, starring Peter Noone. Fantastic. Keep it up. Love ya...

Hey Guys-

I hope all is well with you!

Please visit our page and give our new track "That Way About You" a listen and let us know what you think. It's very '60's Mersey Beat sounding!

Cheers,
