White Plains were a British pop music group that existed from 1969 to 1976. They had an ever-changing line-up of musicians and five UK hit singles, all on the Deram Records label, in the early 1970s.^[1][2]

The spinoff of the one hit wonder group The Flower Pot Men, White Plains’ first hit came in 1970 with “My Baby Loves Lovin'”. Their later successful songs include “I’ve Got You on My Mind”, “Lovin’ You Baby”, “Julie, Do Ya Love Me”, “When You Are a King” and “Step Into a Dream”. After “When You Are A King” peaked at number four in Northern Ireland, the group would not release a chart-worthy song for another two years, until they released “Step Into a Dream”.

White Plains disbanded in 1976, but was reformed on three occasions: briefly in 1978, again for a two year run from 2004 to 2006, and finally for a summer tour in 2013. White Plains is also known for being one of the groups Tony Burrows recorded a series of one-hit wonder songs with.
