Missoula, Montana formed folky bluegrass group Tophouse head out to the lake for their version of "Fly Me to the Moon."
The definitive version of the song was recorded in 1964 by Hoboken, New Jersey megastar Frank Sinatra.
The origins of the song date back a decade, though, with the first rendering recorded by Cleveland, Ohio actress/comedian/singer Kaye Ballard.
And, there were metric tons of notable singers to tackle it before Ol' Blue Eyes.
They include:
- Johnny Mathis
- Peggy Lee
- Dion and the Belmonts
- Nat King Cole
- Dinah Washington
- Perry Como
- Mel Torme
- Petula Clark
- Brenda Lee
- Paul Anka
- Julie London
- Judy Garland
