Event
Leonard, Coleman and Blunt at the Strand Theatre
Glenn Leonard, Joe Coleman and Joe Blunt have been around the world and back again several times each as the lead singers of three of the most legendary vocal groups of all time: the Temptations, Platters and Drifters. The three Washington, DC natives have a back-story right out of a Hollywood movie; Leonard, Coleman & Blunt grew up singing together in church and on street corners throughout the 1960s. Joe Coleman remembers meeting Joe Blunt at church for the first time as members of the Junior Choir, which was directed by his mom Rev. Effie Coleman and Joe's Blunt's mom Rev. Nan Brown. "We were seven or eight years old. My mom told me to get ready for choir rehearsal to which I said, 'Mom, I'm not in the choir.' Mom replied, 'Oh, I didn't tell you... you're in the choir!' Absolutely, my favorite story."
