They became the real-life inspiration behind the cartridge family.
_ Even today, they personify the baby boom generation in all its extremes and eccentricities.
They became one of the most musically gifted American families to hit the top of the pop charts

Coming all the way from Newport, Rhode Island to the Happy Together Tour,
we are proud to present the Cowsills.
