Their smooth harmonies and emotive deliveries helped define the doo-wop era with hits such as "Tears on My Pillow," which propelled them to national stardom in 1958. The group's line-up fluctuated over the years, but their core sound always revolved around Little Anthony's distinctive voice.
The band's music evolved through the 1960s, with hits like "Goin' Out Of My Head" and "I'm On The Outside (Looking In)" showcasing a move toward a more soulful and dramatic sound, while incorporating orchestral arrangements that set the standard for pop production in the era. Despite these changes, they maintained a loyal fanbase and enjoyed consistent chart success. Little Anthony & The Imperials' impact on the music industry was recognized when they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2009.
