The Exciters was a 1960s American pop group whose one big hit was the perky and upbeat Jerry Leiber / Mike Stoller tune "Tell Him" in 1962. Originally a girl group consisting of Brenda Reid, Carolyn Johnson and Lillian Walker, they later added Herb Rooney--Reid`s husband--to their lineup. "Tell Him" reached #4 on the US charts in 1962.
