Reparata and The Delrons were an American girl group that gained popularity in the mid-1960s. The group, centered around lead singer Mary Aiese (later known as Reparata), was known for their harmonious vocal arrangements and pop-oriented sound, often infused with elements of doo-wop and soul. Perhaps their most notable hit was "Whenever a Teenager Cries," which placed them firmly in the canon of classic girl group pop. Over time, the group's membership changed frequently, but their signature sound and influence on the girl group genre remain significant.
