The Studebakers have been harmonizing since 1993, when Jill Montgomery started the group. Her idea was to bring back the marvelous melodies and lyrics of the songs of the 20's, 30's and 40's and to deliver them with the clarity and close harmony that made them such big favorites in those years. First to join Jill in the trio was Becky Cavanaugh. Becky always loved to harmonize, so she was a natural fit. Jill and Becky were joined by Sharon Maner, who also had a natural gift for harmony. Randy Seybold, a virtuoso on the bass and jazz guitar, has been another powerful addition to the Studebakers. Their newest member, Marilyn Rucker, tickles the ivories and adds original songwriting to the mix.
