Biography
The Wiere Brothers were vaudeville performers who occasionally appeared in films and television. Their films include Hands Across the Border in 1944 with Roy Rogers, Road to Rio in 1947 with Bob Hope and Bing Crosby, and Double Trouble in 1967 as three detectives on the hunt for Elvis Presley. In 1962, the Wiere Brothers had their own TV series called “Oh, Those Bells!” that aired on CBS. The show was created by Jules White who had previously directed The Three Stooges, Buster Keaton, and Andy Clyde in short-subject films for Columbia Pictures. “Oh, Those Bells!” included a lot of slapstick comedy but only 13 episodes were aired. The team was still appearing on television in 1970 on shows such as “The Merv Griffin Show” and “Laugh-In” and were still touring the same year. But after Sylvester’s death in July 1970, Harry and Herbert Wiere discontinued their act. Harry Wiere did make one appearance on the TV series Bionic Woman in 1976 as the Tipsy Man.
One of their popular acts of the 1960s involved the three brothers playing the violin, guitar and bass fiddle. Herbert would try to do a serious number on the violin but would get frustrated with his brothers’ hillbilly antics. With a shrug, Herbert would stop playing and decide to balance the violin on his chin. Harry would then notice Herbert’s accomplishment and would take the guitar and balance it on his chin. This left Sylvester smiling blandly at the audience, still plucking his bass fiddle. When Sylvester sees Herbert and Harry balancing their instruments on their chins, he would do a long take, turning from his brothers to his huge bass fiddle and then back at them. Then, finally Sylvester would lift the bass fiddle in the air and balance it on his chin for the finale.
Inga Wiere, a sister of Herbert, Harry and Sylvester Wiere, was married to dancer Jon Zerby. Together they were known as The Dancing Zerby’s, a successful nightclub act in the 1940s and 1950s. Actress and dancer Kim Darby is their daughter.
