Artist Bio:
Ollie & The Nightingales was an American soul group formed in Memphis, Tennessee, in the late 1960s. The group consisted of lead singer Ollie Hoskins, along with Ernest Perryman, Robert Phillips, and Richard Harris. They were signed to Stax Records, a prominent soul music label, and released several singles and one album during their career.
Their biggest hit was "I've Got a Feeling," which reached the top 10 on the R&B charts in 1968. The group's music was characterized by their smooth harmonies and Hoskins' powerful vocals. Despite their talent and critical acclaim, Ollie & The Nightingales never achieved mainstream success comparable to some of their labelmates. After Stax Records closed in the mid-1970s, the group disbanded, but their music continues to be appreciated by soul music enthusiasts.
