The Manhattan Transfer
"...arguably the most honored and respected vocal quartet today." - Goldmine Magazine
The Manhattan Transfer started out as a harmony vocal quartet nearly 40 years ago, playing in clubs and performance halls all over New York City, and quickly became the #1 live attraction. After tremendous billboard success in 1979, the group catapulted to the top, winning their first of what would later become many Grammy Awards. The first awards came in 1981 for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, and Best Jazz Performance by a Duo or Group in the same year for "Boy from New York City" and "Until I Met You (Corner Pocket)" respectively. They were honored in 1982 with another Grammy for their hit single, "Route 66," which remains one of their biggest hits ever. In 1985 they received 12 Grammy nominations for the album "Volcalese" which became the single most nominated album in history and solidified the group as one of the most innovative vocal groups in popular music. The multi-talented group has recorded with legends such as Tony Bennett, Bette Midler, James Taylor and Frankie Vallie and continues to delight audiences everywhere with their timeless sound, varied musical style, and exquisite four-part harmonies.
