Originally known as The Kingsmen, the group had to change their name due to a conflict with another band. In a hotel room brainstorming session, the name “Statler Brothers” was chosen after Don Reid spotted a box of Statler tissues. The new name marked the beginning of a successful era for the quartet, composed of brothers Don and Harold Reid, Phil Balsley, and Lew DeWitt.
Their big break came with the release of their genre-defying hit “Flowers on the Wall” in 1965. The song topped both country and pop charts, earning the Statler Brothers two Grammy Awards and solidifying their place in music history. The song’s popularity resurfaced in 1994 when it was featured in Quentin Tarantino’s film Pulp Fiction, reaching new audiences and becoming part of a best-selling soundtrack.
