The Hit Men are a collection of hit-makers whose friendships and individual record successes have been interweaving with each other for most of their lives. The band includes former members of mega star acts like Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, Tommy James and the Shondells, The Critters, Cat Stevens, Jim Croce, Elton John & Kiki Dee, and Jim Webb, among others.
