love the video. i'm having trouble finding a lot of information on the demarco sisters through simple google searches (outside the broad, annoyingly incomplete, wikipedia-type overviews).
who's who in this video? ages, etc? any info or links to info? thanks in advance.
So wonderful to have the DeMarcos rise again via youtube. They made a lot of records (and money) for Decca and they were on all the top radio and T.V. sows, and regulars on Fred Allen's radio show. They had an unusual blend because basically they were five lead singers doing harmony. As you can see, they were absolutely darling and very animated.
that's my mom (joann (quartuccio) bean) second from the left. thank you so much for posting this wonderful surprise. my family has never seen this before. the video is pre 1953. she passed 51 years ago.
@Gatorrock787 Thats because the folks on those shows try too hard. look at how much at ease the sisters are.Today every singer wants to come out of the starting gate at full throttle. Thats great, but what have ya got left? Tghats why I appreciate the vids you are posting. many thanks!

@kevingiampa If I were you, I'd send a youtube message to bobibean (below). She has an inside connection to all the information you need.

@Gatorrock787 No, must be why I never get invited to parties. :(

Things I learned from 50's Tv...It is very important that we feel as if we are at a party when we watch people sing. :)

@LisaFreemontStreet That's very true... I don't feel that way watching American Idol (not that I do).
