High-energy, pop vocal music, and great harmonies for over 34 years. Voted four-time winners of the "Best Entertainment in Michigan" with nearly 4,000 performances, 2 performance tours of the US Military Bases in Germany and an emmy-award winning national PBS-TV special, THREE MEN and a TENOR has been earning standing ovation audiences everywhere they play. Now booking the Music of America 250 Tour.
Paul Felch, Glenn Williams, Chuck Colby and Mark Stiles created a group so talented and diverse that they were sought after to open shows for Jay Leno, The Beach Boys, Dionne Warwick, and Lee Greenwood, and have been seen by over 2 million people in their esteemed 34 year history.
Since the four members are all sons of veterans of our country, giving back to veterans and their families has played an important role, including 60 performances in Germany on two different US Military Base performance tours. Both of these tours included bedside visits at Landstuhl Hospital in Ramstein to sing and lighten the mood of the wounded American soldiers from the front lines of battle in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Detroit Public Television (DPTV-PBS) produced a 90-minute music concert special titled "Three Men and a Tenor- In Concert" that played in over 70 national markets, spurring leads for 3MT in nearly every state and into Canada. The high-energy concert show was awarded an Emmy for "Live Shots in a Concert Setting".
The group's motto is that "it is more important to win audiences than to win awards", but they have been honored by esteemed recognition nonetheless. Several awards have been bestowed upon them like winning "The Best Entertainment in Michigan" four times (2017, 2016, 2011, and 2006 and were runners up in 2018 and 2019) by the Michigan Meetings and Events Magazine. They were also recognized as the highest-rated touring group by the Michigan Touring Arts Association.
Bookings have taken "Three Men and a Tenor" to 38 states throughout America, with the Phoenix/Mesa and Palm Desert, CA areas being very successful winter destinations. The group gets regular standing ovations by the Cal-Am and Thesman active-living communities and Golf and RV Resorts throughout Arizona, Florida and California.
Considering that the initial mission was to "see America and have someone else pay for it", it seems that these guys have achieved those great HEIGHTS... well, maybe three of them have.
