<P> Vance asked Davidson to describe his fictitious band and their music . Initially , Davidson said that the Cruisers sounded like Dion and the Belmonts , but when they meet Frank , they have elements of Jim Morrison and The Doors . However , Davidson did not want to lose sight of the fact that the Cruisers were essentially a Jersey bar band , and he thought of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band . The filmmaker told Vance to find him someone that could produce music that contained elements of these three bands . Davidson was getting close to rehearsals when Vance called him and said that he had found the band -- John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band from Providence , Rhode Island . </P>
