The Tremeloes, originally Brian Poole and The Tremeloes, are an English beat group founded in 1958 in Dagenham, England. They initially found success in the British Invasion era with lead singer Brian Poole, scoring eight top 40 hits on the UK Singles Chart from 1963 to 1965, including a No. 1 with "Do You Love Me" in 1963. The original line-up consisted of Poole, lead guitarist Rick Westwood, rhythm guitarist Alan Blakley, bassist Alan Howard, and drummer Dave Munden. Both Poole and Howard departed in 1966. The Tremeloes continued as a four-piece - initially with bassist Mick Clarke, who was replaced by Len "Chip" Hawkes later that year - with all the members singing (though most of the leads were sung by Hawkes and Munden). The group had a further 13 UK top 40 hits between 1967 and 1971 including a second No. 1 with "Silence Is Golden" in 1967, as well as "Here Comes My Baby" and "Even the Bad Times Are Good" the same year, "(Call Me) Number One" in 1969, and "Me and My Life" in 1970. Various other musicians came and went after 1972, but all members of the 1966–1972 Westwood/Blakley/Munden/Hawkes quartet, as well as Poole and Clarke, have at some point performed with later versions of the band, which is still together as of 2026.
Two band members had children who become pop stars in their own right. Poole's daughters Karen and Shelly Poole made several hit records as "Alisha's Attic" between 1996 and 2001. Hawkes's son Chesney Hawkes is a successful singer-songwriter who has also toured for a while as a member of the Tremeloes.
