Barry Rapp

b. USA. Created in Connecticut, USA, in the first 20s, Barney Rapp’s orchestra (aka Barney Rapp And His New Englanders) was a favorite Midwest appeal in the first times of the dance music group boom. Their center of operations quickly became Cincinnati, where Rapp possessed his own night time club. Following that several remote control radio broadcasts helped pass on the group’s recognition. Their performers included Eddie Ryan, Bunny Welcome, Ruby Wright and soon-to-be film celebrity Doris Day time, with recordings released by Bluebird and Victor Information. Rapp himself made an appearance in a minumum of one Hollywood film, but his music group quickly became known nearly specifically for having provided Day her begin in the entertainment market. This was towards the detriment of the smooth, technically experienced troupe of music artists who completely deserved their solid local reputation.
