Motown Legends

The Contours are a legendary Motown group formed in 1958, initially known as the Blenders, consisting of talented singers Joe Billingslea, Billy Hoggs, Billy Gordon, Leroy Fair, and later Hubert Johnson. They became the first group signed to Berry Gordy Jr.'s Gordy label, achieving immense success with their hit "Do You Love Me," which became Motown's fastest rising hit of all time.

After facing a decline in popularity during the late 1960s, The Contours experienced a resurgence in the 1980s, particularly after their music was featured in the film "Dirty Dancing." Today, they continue to perform worldwide, captivating audiences with their energetic shows and rich musical history, while also featuring original member Joe Billingslea and long-time veterans Gary Grier and Al Chisholm.
