Frankie began his professional career in the early ’50s with the band “Variety Trio”. Things started for him when he was singing in public and was offered to sing for the band. Evidently, Valli came from a humble beginning and it was the practice that made him who he is today. Things were slowly but surely getting better for the singer and he made a decision to give himself a new stage name. And so the name Frankie Valli came forth and under the new title, he released the song, “My Mother’s Eyes” in 1953. Ever since, he has gone on to work with the likes of Billy Thompson and Frank Cattone for the new group, “The Variatones”.
