The Schmitt Brothers
1951 International Champion Barbershop Quartet

Four Small Town Boys
Who Made it to the Big Time
The Schmitt Brothers from Two Rivers, Wisconsin, electrified audiences with their sublime harmonies. They skyrocketed to stardom after they won an international singing competition in 1951, putting their hometown on the map and sparking a 35-year career. They “traveled along” more than 2 million miles, “singing a song” in 3,000 performances on radio, TV and North America's top stages. Through it all, they ran local businesses, led civic organizations and raised 35 children among the four families. This is their amazing story.
