The Legacy
Our Story
In 1953, bass singer Herb Reed founded and named The Platters® — going on to become a Rock & Roll, Vocal Group, and GRAMMY® Hall of Fame artist, and the only member to appear on all 400+ recordings. Theirs was the first Black vocal group to reach international superstardom, setting a standard that still echoes through popular music today.
The official Platters® organization is carried forward by Herb Reed Enterprises, LLC under Frederick J. Balboni, Jr. — Reed’s longtime manager and handpicked successor.
This is not a nostalgia act. The current group is a direct, living continuation of that legacy — the same name, the same signature harmony — carried forward with new music and a new generation of voices.
The sound that started it all is still being written.
The sound that started it all — still alive, still electric, still The Platters®.
