Bill Medley has been touring for 55 years now and he doesn’t plan on slowing down anytime soon. He is the last living band member from The Righteous Brothers.
His original singing partner, Bobby Hatfield, died in 2003. Medley continued to tour and sing as a soloist, but he was inspired to resurrect the band when he saw Bucky Heard performing at a concert a few years ago. The revitalized Righteous Brothers took to the stage in 2016 with all their classic tunes.
Heard has shared the stage with legends like Andy Williams and Glen Campbell. He was also honored as “Male Vocalist of the Year” by entertainment publications.
“You can’t replace Bobby Hatfield, he was one of kind, but I knew Bucky would be able to fill-in for Bobby pretty good. Real good actually,” said Medley about his new singing partner.
In his career, Medley has won a Grammy, Oscar, Golden Globe, American Music Award, and he has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
