Tavares

Tavares, a dynamic group in the R&B and disco music scenes, made a significant impact on the industry with their groovy tunes and harmonious melodies. The group, made up of five brothers from New Bedford, Massachusetts, embarked on their musical journey in the 1960s, and by the mid-1970s, they had solidified their place in the disco scene.

An interesting story from the Tavares' career revolves around their connection to the iconic film, "Saturday Night Fever." The brothers performed a cover of the Bee Gees' song "More Than a Woman" for the film's soundtrack. Although the Bee Gees' version is more widely recognized, it's the Tavares' rendition that was used in the film itself. The soundtrack went on to be a massive success and won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 1979. This moment served to further establish Tavares' place in the global music landscape.
