The Village Callers are a Latin jazz and R&B group hailing from East Los Angeles. Originally formed in the early 1960s as 'Marcy & the Imperials', the band underwent numerous lineup changes and gained significant popularity in East Los Angeles. They performed at prominent venues such as the Big Union Hall, Roger Young Auditorium, and Montebello Ballroom. Their victory in the battle of the bands at East Los Angeles College in 1966 or '67 opened doors for more performances. The band also had a successful run at the Plush Bunny nightclub in Pico Rivera, despite being underage. The group's manager was Hector Rivera, who is not to be confused with the New York pianist, composer, arranger, bandleader, and producer of the same name.
