Line 10: ==Early career== The Everly Brothers recorded their own first single, "Keep A' Lovin' Me, " in 1956, under the aegis of [[Chet Atkins]], but it flopped. However their next single, "Bye Bye Love," (which had been rejected by 30 other acts, including [[Elvis Presley]]) became an across-the-board smash, reaching #2 on the pop charts, and #1 on both the Country, and the R & B charts. The song, written by the songwriting husband and wife team of [[Felice and Boudleaux Bryant]], became their first million-seller. They soon became known as the stalwarts of Archie Bleyer's [[Cadence Records]] label. They had a hit with the single "Claudette," written by [[Roy Orbison]]. Working with the Bryants, the harmonic duo had a number of hits in the [[United States\|U.S.]] and the [[United Kingdom\|UK]], the biggest of which were "[[Wake Up Little Susie]]," "[[All I Have to Do Is Dream]]," and "Bird Dog."
