The Softones

The Softones were an American male singing group from the city of Baltimore, Maryland, best known for their 'sweet' soul recordings of the 1970s. The group was notable for lead singer J. Marvin Brown's high falsetto, similar to that of The Stylistics' lead singer Russell Thompkins Jr. and Earth, Wind & Fire's Philip Bailey, and derived from Eddie Kendricks' falsetto style with The Temptations. Also in the group were Steven Jackson, Elton Lynch and Byron Summerville.
