What are Frankie Valli’s sources of income?

Valli's career commenced in the early 1950s with the Variety Trio, featuring Nickie DeVito, Tommy DeVito, and Nick Macioci. Initially granted a guest spot due to his desire to sing publicly, Valli played bass and sang with the group. After the Variety Trio disbanded in late 1952, Valli and Tommy DeVito joined the house band at The Strand in New Brunswick, New Jersey.

In 1953, Valli recorded his first single, "My Mother's Eyes," under the name "Frankie Valley," influenced by "Texas" Jean Valli, a hillbilly singer. The Four Lovers, formed with Hank Majewski, Frank Cottone, and Billy Thompson, eventually changed their name to the Four Seasons in 1960. As the lead singer of the Four Seasons, Valli contributed to a series of hits from "Sherry" in 1962 to "Who Loves You" in 1975.

Furthermore, Gaudio and Crewe collaborated with Valli on solo recordings during the 1960s. Valli's solo recording "You're Ready Now" became a Northern soul hit in 1966, reaching number eleven on the UK Singles Chart in 1970. In 1975, his single "My Eyes Adored You" topped the Billboard Hot 100, followed by hits like "Swearin' to God" and "Fallen Angel."

Valli covered the Beatles' "A Day in the Life" in 1976 and sang the theme song for the film version of "Grease" in 1978. He recorded songs like "Save Me, Save Me" and "Fancy Dancer." Facing otosclerosis in 1967, the musician underwent surgery in 1980, restoring most of his hearing. In 2005, the musical "Jersey Boys" premiered on Broadway.

His solo career continued with the release of "Romancing the '60s" in 2007 and "Tis the Seasons" in 2016, featuring Christmas songs. During this time, he went on tours with the Four Seasons. In 2021, he released his 12th studio album, "Touch of Jazz," featuring jazz cover songs. He also appeared in TV shows like "Miami Vice," "Full House," and "The Sopranos."

Valli played Leonard Cassano in a 2014 episode of "Hawaii Five-0" and appeared as himself on AMC's "The Making of the Mob: New York" in 2015. As of 2023, Valli announced a farewell tour, marking the conclusion of the Four Seasons' 64-year run. Despite retirement plans, Valli remains open to future performances.
