Recently, The Shirelles began a new phase in their career, appearing in concert with Symphony Orchestras across the country.

With a history that includes headlining the first integrated show in Alabama, participating in early bus tours and package shows with their peers among the originators of rock & roll, and performing for Presidents Kennedy and Johnson, The Shirelles have many inside stories to tell and are currently in great demand on the TV talk/interview circuit.

The Shirelles were among the first star entertainers to get involved in the battle against AIDS, and have also served as fundraisers for the USO (they hosted a gala New York benefit for the Persian Gulf troops) and the Mental Health Association in Passaic (NJ) County for which The Shirelles co-founder Beverly Lee has served on the Board of Directors.

In recent years The Shirelles have received the Soul of America Music Award and the Pioneer Award from the Rhythm and Blues Foundation, in addition to their 1996 induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

The Shirelles have made such an indelible impression on American culture that their name is regularly used in the Doonesbury comic strips and on TV programs (Golden Girls, Cheers, Murphy Brown, Blossom) to personify the era of the 50s and 60s.

They continue to thrill audiences worldwide with their high-energy show, "An Evening With The Shirelles", that includes their many hits interspersed with a wide range of selections from pop, rock and soul to standards, gospel and country, mixed with spirited dancing and comedy, all done in the inimitable style that millions of fans have come to expect of the legend that is The Shirelles.
