The group from top to bottom Mike Bove’, Larry Chassen, and Marc Snader were all from Philadelphia, Pa. The group was formed in 1962 when the trio were 18 years of age. Their first recordings "Land of Love" and "The Image of My Love" were produced and written in 1964 by future radio and TV star Gene Arnold and recorded at San-Dee Worldwide Limited Records in Philadelphia at the 212 N 12th St. studios.( Gene’s wife Terry Hunter is the mystery female speaking voice heard on the recordings).
"Land of Love" became a Philly favorite and soon was being played throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware. When the record broke in the Midwest, the group joined the "Caravan of Stars" tour in the summer of 1964 and toured four states and Canada promoting the release.
The Beatles explosion in 1964 dampened prospects for most American releases that year, but the Tridels continued to perform until 1966, when Larry joined the Coast Guard.. Helene Jarvis (Goldberg) joined the Tridels in 1966 and they continued to perform in clubs and events throughout the tri-state area in the 1960s.
The group recorded over 25 original compositions, and wrote and recorded for commercials and two documentary films. In the late 1960s, The Tridels humorously recorded a jingle for the Quickie Mop Company, the distributors of replaceable mop heads as a lark. The company loved it and Philadelphia WCAU radio and television personality Bill Hart was hired to record the commercial spot with them. The Tridels also wrote and recorded a musical commercial for the Atlantic City Race Course titled "Love in the Afternoon."
In 1970 Emmy award-winning documentary filmmaker Martin Spinelli asked the group to write a song for a film he was finishing on Eagleville Hospital caring for patients with alcohol and substance abuse. The song "No Man Is So Lost" was featured in the film Eagleville: You’re Not Alone. A vocal and instrumental track was created for another documentary on Philadelphia International Airport titled Portrait of An Airport.
The Tridels disbanded in 1971. Today, "Land of Love" and "Image of My Love"are featured in several compilation albums and CDs being sold on the internet by British and German companies. The song became a cult classic in northern England and in Germany and several European sites on the internet, feature The Tridels on their site.
In 2010, the original members re-united for the first time in 47 years. As a tribute to the group’s musical legacy, a double CD, Back to Life , an anthology of the Tridels’ music and memories, was released in August of 2011, the 47th anniversary of the release of "Land of Love." All proceeds from the sale of the CD have been donated to Pennies in Action, in support of cancer research. The Tridels were featured in a six-page article in the December 2011 issue of Echoes of the Past magazine which is published in Massachusetts.
In 2012, the original trio was asked to perform at their 50th high school reunion and entertained their classmates in person for the first time in fifty years. Several new songs were released in 2012 and 2013 by the current version of The Tridels. Currently performing with original Mike Bove' are Cheryl Monroe, and Paul Jerome.
