Vincent Carella began his singing career at a very early age. By his teens, he was performing in stage shows like "The Mikado" and "HMS Pinafore" while also forming his first musical group, Vinny & the Exclusives. It was at a neighborhood rock and roll show that they were co-billed with Randy & The Rainbows which led to the group being signed with hit songwriter Neil Levenson, several weeks later. Now known as the Livin Ends, Vinny and the group (after several name changes) recorded for Roulette, Colpix, Holton, Capitol and Paramount Records. In the mid 1970's, Vinny replaced a member of Randy & the Rainbows and currently performs with them; recording and producing records for Columbia, MCA, Millennium, Foxmoor and Wizworks Records.
