THE BOSWELL SISTERS (Martha, Connee, Helvetia) were a jazz vocal trio noted for intricate harmonies & rhythmic experimentation; they were also a major influence on artists such as Ella Fitzgerald & the Andrews Sisters.

They were prominent in the 1930s.

Connee Boswell. Of the Boswell Sisters. She had polio as a kid and couldn’t walk. They hid her disability after discrimination (1920s) but once uber famous she’d come out as disabled every now and then and then pretend it never happened. She even had a rig with roller skates to fake dancing

The Boswell Sisters from New Orleans. Ella Fitzgerald's favorite singer was Connee Boswell, the oldest sister. She sang two of Connee's songs to win amateur night at the Apollo in 1934, which began her professional career.

This is FANTASTIC. So much depth, but written in a conversational style that draws you in immediately and keeps you hooked. And bonus points for mentions of Connee Boswell and Gene Krupa!
BUY THIS. Seriously!

“Rock and Roll” is late in their career as a trio before Vet and Martha retired from the music business. It’s not their best work.
Listen to Connee scat on this. She was the first white singer who knew how to swing:
