From 1970 to 1974, for 96 episodes, there was a wildly popular musical sitcom television show that aired in the United States. The show was called The Partridge Family.
It was a fictional American family who played music together, but The Partridge Family was based on a real-life family: The Cowsills. The Cowsills were comprised of siblings Bill, Barry, Bob, Paul, John, Susan, and Paul, along with their mother Barbara.
Founded in 1965, the family band had eight singles in the US that charted on the Billboard Hot 100. They produced their signature family harmonies for over five decades releasing their latest album, Rhythm of the World, in 2022.
Bob, Paul, and Susan still and various members of their families still perform over 60 live shows a year, and since 2015, have appeared annually on the Happy Together Tour with The Turtles and several other popular 60s-era bands. (Get your tickets now!)
Stay tuned for our interview today with Cowsill siblings Bob, Susan and Paul, the real-life Partridge family!
