A short summary from Wiki: (More wiki info here: WIKI – THE NYLONS)
The Nylons are an a cappella group founded in 1978 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Best known for their covers of The Turtles’ “Happy Together”, Steam’s “Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye”, and The Tokens’ version of the traditional “The Lion Sleeps Tonight”. The band gained exposure from the mid-1980s syndicated sitcom Throb by singing (with the show’s lead actress Diana Canova) the theme to the show. Also, on April 28, 1989, the band’s cover of the song “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” was featured on The Jim Henson Hour (Episode 3 – Monster Telethon). In 1986, the group appeared on the critically acclaimed children’s television show “Sharon, Lois & Bram’s Elephant Show” featuring children’s entertainers, Sharon, Lois & Bram. The Nylons appeared in Season 3 of the show on the Treasure Island episode singing The Lion Sleeps Tonight. These songs appeared on the band’s albums, 1987’s Happy Together and 1989’s Rockapella. The Nylon’s current lineup includes Claude Morrison (tenor), Garth Mosbaugh (tenor), Gavin Hope (baritone) and Tyrone Gabriel (bass).
