Five Man Electrical Band
The Five Man Electrical Band was a rock group from Canada, best known for their 1972 hit "Signs."
The group (which may have been a precursor to the sound of the Electric Light Orchestra) consisted of Les Emmerson, Brian Rading, Ted Gerow, Mike Belanger and Rick Belanger. Some members previously recorded and toured under the name The Staccatos .
The group disbanded in 1972 to pursue solo careers. Since 1986, they have continued to reunite for several concerts a year.
The band would inspire the group Tesla to record a live album in the 1980s, Five Man Acoustical Jam , which included a remake of "Signs".
