Early history
Tony Orlando was born Michael Anthony Orlando Cassavitis on April 3, 1944. Orlando recorded through the 1960s with only moderate chart success. He had three Top 40 hits, two in 1961 and another in 1969 as the lead singer for the studio group Wind. While recording through the 1960s, he also became a producer and a successful music executive with Columbia Records and April/Blackwood music.
They re-formed in 1988 for a five-week tour that wound up lasting into 1993, with Vincent's sister Pamela Vincent stepping in whenever Hopkins was fulfilling her acting/television obligations.
American Vocal/Pop group formed in 1970 by Tony Orlando (who was a solo-singer at that time), Telma Hopkins and Joyce Vincent. A few earlier hits were released under the name Dawn (5) , in 1971 the group recorded as "Dawn (5) featuring Tony Orlando" and around 1974, the group began using the name Tony Orlando & Dawn. In 1976 the group scored a new recording contract with Elektra.
