Jacob Elyachar’s Blog: JE: You play Tommy DeVito in the show. What was his impact on the Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons history?
CF: Tommy DeVito is one of the original Four Seasons. He is kind of the one who got the ball rolling, he and the bass player Nick Massi, were playing music 13 years before The Four Seasons became the Four Seasons. He was the one that pulled Frankie onstage for the first time, which I even say in the show. Joe Pesci came to Tommy, who was basically running and managing the group and he was also their lead guitarist.
