5-Year Old Musical Prodigy, Julian Pavone, Joins Legendary Motown Group

Motown music icons, The Contours, best known for their 1962 hit "Do You Love Me," have just added 5 year old Julian Pavone, to their group.

Pavone will be singing, dancing, drumming, and touring with members, Joe Billingslea, Charles Davis, Al Chisholm, Gary Grier and Odell Jones.

Original band member Joe Billingslea, who founded The Contours, likens Julian to a "modern Stevie Wonder" and thinks the kid has serious soul.


Pavone’s talent was introduced to the world when he was offered a contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers' drum line at 15 months old. At 20 months old, Julian recorded his first CD, "Go Baby!" with legendary bassist Ralphe Armstrong. He plays a 22-piece custom drum set with 17 cymbals

The Contours were signed by Berry Gordy, Jr. as one of Motown's first acts in 1960.
