Singer/guitarist Tommy DeVito was a founding member of the Four Seasons, and he performed and recorded with the group from 1961 to 1971. DeVito got his musical start with his brother Nick DeVito and Hank Majewski in a New Jersey group called "the Variety Trio." The band expanded to a quartet and changed its name to :the Variatones" with the addition of Frankie Valli in 1954. When they were signed to a recording contract with RCA Victor, they changed their name to the Four Lovers. The Four Lovers made a series of recordings for RCA in 1956 and 1957, only one of which, the single "You're the Apple of My Eye," made the charts.
