Artist Biography
Earl Grant was a triple-threat entertainer as a pianist, organist, and vocalist. While much of his material fell into the arenas of either light pop or jazz-schmaltz, Grant scored two R&B hits in the late '50s and early '60s, the most memorable being "Sweet Sixteen Bars" in 1962. It reached number nine on the R&B charts. His prior smash "The End" was his lone pop hit, reaching number seven in 1958. Grant was also in the films Tender Is the Night, Imitation of Life, and Tokyo Night. He was killed in 1970 in a car wreck at age 37. ~ Ron Wynn
