Travis Edmonson left the Gateway Singers to form the duo Bud & Travis with Bud Dashiell. The group split in 1961, however, three of the members Milt Chapman, Betty Mann, and Jerry Walter, continued performing as the Gateway Trio until, after releasing albums for Capitol Records, the trio broke up. The Ed Sullivan Show reportedly cancelled an appearance by Gateway Singers, after executives from the CBS television network objected to showing a mixed-race group. (en)
