The Four Mints (also known as the Mints) were a rarity, a respected white vocal group of the early rock & roll era capable of performing R&B with conviction. Hailing from Center, Texas, the members had known each other since childhood and sang at local events and church functions. They crossed over into popular music and R&B in 1954, and were good enough to get bookings far outside of Center, even managing to cross paths with Elvis Presley. They cut a handful of songs for Lin Records, including "Night Air" and "Little Mama Tree Top." The Four Mints left Lin after just a few months for the much larger Decca label in 1956. They failed to generate any hits, but Decca's promotional efforts on their behalf and the resulting exposure gave them the intro they needed to break out of the south and become a national act.
