The Crew-Cuts were a Canadian vocal quartet that made a number of popular records that charted in the United States and worldwide They named themselves after the popular crew cut haircut, one of the first connections made between pop music and hairstyle. While the crew-cut hair style came as a result of the name change, the original intent was that the name crew-cuts denoted the music they sang (pop) as opposed to Longhair (classical). They were most famous for their recording of The Chords “Sh-Boom.”

The Crew-Cuts were

* Rudi Maugeri (January 21, 1931 - May 7, 2004) (baritone)
* John Perkins (born August 28, 1931) (lead)
* Ray Perkins (born November 28, 1932) (bass) (John Perkins’ brother)
* Pat Barrett (born September 15, 1933) (1st or high tenor)
