Believe it or not, three members of the original Tren-Dells and Carnations (the band) are back together in a new group, The Doo-Wop All-Stars. Johnny Hourigan and Billy Summit (lead singers) and Ed Humphries (sax player)perform regularly in Louisville, KY and the surrounding area along with George Poole (formerly with The Sultans), Lynn Cline (founding member of The Epics) and the "youngster" (50 years old), Alan Watson (formerly a lead singer with Metro and still a lead singer with The Tymes Band). In February 2009 The Doo-Wop All-Stars put out a fabulous CD, One Foot In. Visit their web site to see current photos, scheduled appearances and to purchase their CD. They perform regularly at John E's Restaurant in Louisivlle. You'll need to call ahead for reservations because they are always a sell-out act.
