Hoyt Hawkins was famously known as the handsome baritone for the quartet, The Jordanaires, Elvis Presley’s preferred back up singers. In April 1956, Elvis flew to Nashville to record, ‘I Want You, I Need You, I Love You’, and insisted he record with the Jordanaires. From there, Presley partnered with the quartet for the next 14 years, to include movie and television appearances. Hoyt Hawkins replaced recruit, Bob Hubbard in 1949, and was with the Jordanaires for 33 years, until his death in 1982.
