Fraser Hayes Four

Fraser Hayes Four

Fraser Hayes Four is a British close harmony vocal group formed by musicians Jimmy Fraser and Tony Hayes in the 1950s. While those two remained constant for the life of the group, the girl lead and the 4th (bass) voice changed periodically. Canadian Harry Currie became the 4th voice in 1962, appearing with the group during their 6-week headlining engagement at London's Latin Quarter and on several BBC broadcasts. They are best known for providing musical interludes on the BBC Radio comedy programmes "Beyond Our Ken" and "Round the Horne".
