The Two Lovers big break came in early when backing up a female singer's audition for two New York record men. One of the two record men, Peter Paul, was suitably impressed enough to become their manager. 

A week later, they were themselves auditioning for signed them up that day and the group selected a new name, 

The Four Lovers. The group that ended up recording as The Four Lovers was Frankie Valli (lead vocal, drums),

The quartet released seven singles and one album under the Four Lovers name, with only their debut single,

The single got them their first national television appearance

RCA gave up on the Two Lovers when the group's fifth straight single failed to chart in 1957 and finally dropped the group from its label. The group promptly signed to Epic Records but was quickly dropped when its first single for the label also failed to chart. As a consequence, the discouraged group temporarily disbanded.
