The Arbors were an American pop group formed in 1964 in Ann Arbor, Michigan, consisting of two sets of brothers: Tom and Scott Herrick and Ed and Fred Farran. They began their career by performing at local shows in Michigan before relocating to New York. The group recorded a single for Mercury Records, which received little attention. However, their next single, "A Symphony for Susan," recorded for Carney Records, was reissued nationally on Columbia Records' subsidiary, Date Records, and peaked at #51 on the US chart. They followed up with singles such as "Just Let it Happen" and "Graduation Day," which reached #59 in the US. In 1968, they recorded "Valley of the Dolls," which was overshadowed by the title song from the movie of the same name. The Arbors made a comeback in 1969 with their version of "The Letter," originally a hit for The Box Tops two years prior. Subsequently, they transitioned to writing and producing music for commercials, a venture they continued for about thirty years.
