The Echoes were a vocal trio from Queens, New York City, most famous for their 1961 hit single "Baby Blue". The group was composed of Tommy Duffy, Harry Boyle, and Tom Morrissey. The three had been members of the Laurels.

The Echoes' first single, "Baby Blue", was a major hit, reaching No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100. The Echoes continued to release singles through 1965, but none experienced the same level of success. After changes, the group would be re-branded as The Scoundrels.

Morrissey would later go on to be chairman of the Arizona Republican Party.
