The Isley Brothers emerged from Cincinnati, Ohio in the 1950s as a legendary soul and R&B group that has maintained their influence across different generations. The original vocal trio of Ronald Rudolph and O'Kelly Isley Jr expanded into a larger group which included their younger brothers Ernie and Marvin Isley and brother-in-law Chris Jasper who combined their smooth harmonies with funk rock and gospel music elements.

Their musical success began when they released “Shout” in 1959 which established itself as a timeless party anthem. The group produced timeless music throughout the years with “Twist and Shout,” “This Old Heart of Mine (Is Weak for You),” “That Lady” and the Grammy-winning “Between the Sheets.”
