Danny & The Velaires, originally known as The Screamers, emerged from Sioux City, Iowa, in 1958. Led by singer-songwriter and guitarist Danny Matousek, the band quickly gained prominence with their energetic rock and roll style. In 1961, their dynamic cover of Chuck Berry's "Roll Over Beethoven" soared to No. 51 on the Billboard charts and topped the Los Angeles charts, leading to appearances on "American Bandstand" and tours with Dick Clark's Caravan of Stars. Renamed Danny & The Velaires in 1963, they continued to captivate audiences with their spirited performances and contributions to the rock and roll scene.
