The Skylarks have been performing for private groups and events around town, and are excited to bring their unique show to the public at the Point Loma Assembly. Skylarks Live at the Assembly will feature music through the decades, with fifties hits such as Why do Fools Fall in Love by Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers and Lollipop by the Chordettes; sixties hits like My Boyfriend’s Back by The Angels and Leader of the Pack by The Shangri-Las; and hits from as early as the forties and as late as the eighties. “We have something for everyone,” said Chan. “It will be a fun night for all.” Stay Connected on Social Media!
