From 1964 to 1967, Chad & Jeremy had eleven U.S. hit singles and over seventeen worldwide releases. In the ensuing years, the music of Chad & Jeremy has been re-released on over thirty three albums around the world.
Of the many British Invasion acts that stormed the charts in the wake of the Beatles, Chad & Jeremy possessed a subtlety and sophistication unmatched among their contemporaries.  Chad Stuart and Jeremy Clyde met at drama school in 1960 and soon began playing folk clubs in London where they were discovered by famed movie composer, John Barry. They became a sensation in America riding the wave of the British Invasion with eleven Top 40 hits including Summer Song, Yesterday s Gone, Willow Weep for Me, and Distant Shores. The duo appeared as themselves in legendary TV shows including The Dick Van Dyke Show, Patti Duke Show, Batman and Laredo. They hosted Hullabaloo, appeared on The Tonight Show and all the classic variety shows like The Hollywood Palace, Andy Williams, Danny Kaye and Red Skelton. Some of their most critically acclaimed work was the progressive 1967 release Cabbages and Kings, followed a year later by The Ark, which prompted Rolling Stone Magazine to proclaim: Chad and Jeremy - out of schlock rock into progressive rock.
Another phase in their career began in 2003 with a PBS TV music special. Since then they have performed their two-man show all over the United States, Canada, Hawaii and the Philippines.
