Singer Allan Kowbel was born in Winnipeg in 1943. He was still a child when rock & roll overtook many Canadian radio stations where he lived. When he was in his teens, he picked a stage name, Chad Allan, and started a musical career that would last for decades and bring about the formation of the famed rock band, the Guess Who.
By the end of the '50s Allan formed a rock & roll band called Chad Allan and the Silvertones. Other members were bassist Jim Kale, guitarist Randy Bachman, and drummer Garry Peterson. The group went through a couple of name changes, trying out Chad Allan and the Reflections and Chad Allan and the Expressions. Around 1963, the band was signed to contract by the Canadian-based Quality Records label.
