 The early 1960s saw Seattle become home to a local dance scene built around venues like the Trianon and Parker's.The city also became the major center for recorded popular music in the Pacific Northwest, and had the first American pop hit from the region with The Fleetwoods "Come Softly to Me" in 1959.That same year, the DJ Pat O'Day began working for KJR, and then mounted a series of teen dances featuring bands like The Fabulous Wailers, later to become famous as The Wailers with hits like "Tall Cool One."
