From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Howard Kaylan (born June 22, 1947 in New York City) is an American rock and roll musician, best known as a founding member of the 1960s band The Turtles.
Kaylan grew up in Westchester, a suburb of Los Angeles, California. He studied choral music and clarinet, and won a Bank of America Fine Arts Award at the age of 16. He graduated early (as valedictorian) from Westchester High School, and briefly attended UCLA on a scholarship.
Kaylan and Mark Volman founded The Turtles, a popular band of the late 1960s. After that band folded, they joined The Mothers of Invention; and they also worked together as Flo & Eddie, both in music and in radio broadcasting. As of 2005, they still appear occasionally as "The Turtles ... Featuring Flo & Eddie".
