Older sister Lorrie held up the cowgirl fringe-rustling-against-nylons teenage sensuality department; kid brother Larry was a bundle of hyperkinetic energy, bopping all over the place while laying down exciting, twangy guitar breaks learned firsthand from the King of the Doublenecked Mosrite, Joe Maphis [+].

 The Collins Kids - The Online Roots of Rock
The Collins Kids quickly became popular guests on the top network television variety shows — Arthur Godfrey, Perry Como, Bob Crosby, Dinah Shore, Ed Sullivan, Steve Allen, and many others — with their teenage novelty songs and Rockabilly-tinged repertoire.

Although the Collins Kids had no chart hits, they were extremely popular and instrumental in introducing (along with Ricky Nelson on "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet") an unthreatening style of Rockabilly into the living rooms of middle America during the mid 1950s.
