"By 1958, they were recruited by an American manager and flown to Las Vegas, where they had a popular revue show at the Thunderbird Hotel. In 1959, they were “discovered” by E Sullivan and would perform 22 times on his nationally televised show over a 14 year span. The Sisters soon became very savvy and were able to bring over the rest of their siblings and had a contract with the Stardust to perform as a family revue."
Pretty amazing success story especially for the time. Check out the whole post here for a more in-depth read. Also check out their skeelz in the videos below. They can get down on the glockenspiel? Xylophone? Other impossible to spell instrument? My brother and I formed a group when we were little, but we never made it to Vegas, apparently no one wants to pay $150 a ticket to watch two Asian American male kids re-interpret, "Some Like it Hot" as a spoken word act about Global warming...maybe if we had added a Glockenspiel bit.
