In 1963 their novelty song "Martian Hop" peaked at number 27 on the US Billboard black singles chart, and at number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100. Despite releasing two follow-ups, lack of further chart entries made them one-hit wonders. The trio, who were first cousins, signed to producer Don Kirshner's fledgling Chairman record label. Spirt enjoyed later success as drummer with RCA recording act, the Sidekicks, and also with the Red Coats, who were signed to the Laurie label. John Spirt died in 2003; Steven Rappaport died on July 4, 2007, in Maui, Hawaii, of a heart attack.
