Thomas Adrian "Tommy" Sands (born August 27, 1937) is an American pop music singer and actor. Working in show business as early as 1949, Sands became an overnight sensation and instant teen idol when he appeared on ''Kraft Television Theater'' in January 1957 as "The Singin' Idol." The song from the show, "Teen Age Crush," reached No. 2 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and No. 1 on Cashbox.〔(Tommy Sands at the RAB Hall of Fame )〕 ==Early life== Sands was born into a musical family in Chicago, Illinois; his father was a pianist and his mother a big-band singer.〔 While still young, he moved with his family to Shreveport, Louisiana. Sands began playing the guitar at age eight and within a year had a job performing twice weekly on a local radio station. At the beginning of his teen years, Tommy moved to Houston, Texas. In Houston, he attended Lamar High School and joined a band with "Jimmie Lee Durden and the Junior Cowboys". The band consisted of Sands, Durden, and Billy Reno. They performed on the radio, at county fairs and did personal appearances.〔 He was only 15 when Colonel Tom Parker heard about him and signed him to RCA Records.
