FIRST CONCERT—The ten members of the Good Time Singers will present the first of the Student Union Activities concert series of the year. Tickets for the show Oct. 3 go on sale Monday.
The group recently finished a television pilot film, "The Big Hoot," and have been recording for Capitol records. The group was formed to appear on the Andy Williams Show.
SUA Presents Folk Singers
The Good Time Singers—a tenmember folk-singing group featured on the Andy Williams television shows—will appear at 8:30 p.m. Oct. 3 in Hoch Auditorium as the first SUA-sponsored concert of the school year.
The group was formed in 1963 by Tom Drake, a teacher by day and folk-singer by night in Los Angeles. Learning that Andy Williams wanted a group of ten singers to appear regularly on his variety show, Drake rounded up nine friends and began rehearsals.
One week later the group was auditioned and hired by Williams.
Since then the Good Time Singers have appeared on ABC-TV's "Hootenanny," made a West Coast concert tour and headlined the "Troubadour Club" in Los Angeles.
The group has also completed a television pilot film, based on folk- music, called "The Big Hoot."
KU Theater Schedules 6 Plays
Tickets for the concert will go on sale Monday at the Information Booth, the Kansas Union and Bell's Music Co. Prices are $.75, $1.00 and $1.25.
Tickets will not be sold in blocks.
