The Manhattan Transfer


The Manhattan Transfer is the name of two incarnations of an American vocal group, with Tim Hauser being the only link between the two groups. The group's name comes from John Dos Passos' 1925 novel Manhattan Transfer and reflects their New York origins.

The first group, established in New York City in 1969, disbanded after producing a single album, Jukin' (1971). The second line-up (on which this article focuses) was set up in 1972 and is still together as of 2008. It is famous for mixing jazz, big band, and popular music styles.
