The Brook Brothers started out as a skiffle group in 1956 but , after winning a television talent show , changed their look and sound to approximate the style of The Everly Brothers . They signed to Top Rank Records in 1960 and released a cover of the song " Greenfields " by The Brothers Four the same year . The tune was a hit in Italy but attracted little notice in their home country . After a few more singles were released , they switched to Pye Records , and their second release for them , " Warpaint " ( written by Howard Greenfield and Barry Mann ) , became a UK Top 5 hit . Following the single 's success they released a full-length album and toured with Cliff Richard and Bobby Rydell . They took part in the annual '' NME '' Readers ' Poll-Winners Concert at London 's Wembley Pool on 15 April 1962 . They were produced by a young Tony Hatch , and made an appearance in the film , '' It 's Trad , Dad ! '' . They also entered A Song For Europe for the Eurovision Song Contest 1962 , but did not advance in the contest
