Leo and Doug De Kroo (real name Doug Brewer who changed his surname to De Kroo so they could take the stage name, as well as travel overseas, under the name of The De Kroo Bros) were originally from Perth but based themselves in Sydney from 1960. In March 1960, Columbia released their debut single ''On The Job Too Long'' and then much to their surprise, Columbia released their second ''Loveland'' six days later. With little airplay both records flopped. In March 1961, Columbia issued their third and final single, ''Cave In'' but once again it failed to make an impression on the charts. When Columbia didn't take up the option on their contract they moved to Festival Records. In October they played on the support bill for the Cliff Richard and the Shadows Show tour of Australia and New Zealand. In September 1963 they finally scored their first Top 10 hit with their fourth Festival single ''(And Her Name Was) Scarlet''. Festival released three more singles over the next year or so without much success.
