Biografia:
The Chordettes era um popular quarteto de vocais femininos especializado em música popular tradicional, e que geralmente cantava a cappella. The Chordettes foi um dos grupos vocais de maior tempo de duração, com início no pop e harmonia vocal dos anos 1940 e meados dos anos 1950. Apesar de os arranjos pertencerem, em sua maioria, à The Andrews Sisters do que à doo-wop, elas revelaram ser bastante adaptáveis a era do rock and roll, ao contrário da maioria.
