Biography
Cupertino, CA surf rock band founded 1965 as The Zu, renamed to Goodie Two Shoes (1967), then Papa Du Ron Da Ron(1971) (inspired by a vocal line in the Jan & Dean song "New Girl in School") and finally shortened to Papa Doo Ron Ron.
The group originally played current Top 40 covers mixed with originals through their days as Goodie Two Shoes. When the headliner was running late at a 1971 GTS gig, the promoter asked them to extend their set and they performed a medley of Beach Boys tunes they'd played around with In rehearsals. Crowd reaction was positive and shortly thereafter they changed the name to Papa Doo Ron Da Run with the setlist becoming 60s pop covers with a "beach party" concert theme. The band has recorded ten albums including one of original compositions.
