The group covers the music of the group including Smoky Robinson and the Miracles, the Platters, the Temptations, Drifters, Marvin Gaye and Boyz 2 Men. It is this versatility that has propelled them to status of headlining their own shows, in which they perform stirring renditions of the all the best cover tunes — My Girl, Just My Imagination, Stand By Me and on and on.

The members of Spectrum consist of recording artist Darryl Grant of Oakland; singer and entertainer from Chicago, Pierre Jovan; David Prescott, the soaring-voiced first tenor from Rochester, New York; singer, actor and group founder Cushney Roberts of East Orange, New Jersey, who left the life of a Princeton-educated corporate engineer to cut his teeth in the casino lounges in route to becoming a well-respected Las Vegas showroom entertainer.

Let's just say this is a group of well-mannered, college-educated, world-traveled veterans of the entertainment business who will thoroughly entertain you!
