The Just Brothers were brothers Jimmy and Frank Bryant and several session musicians. Their instrumental song "Sliced Tomatoes" was a Northern dancefloor hit. Frank Bryant became a session musician in the mid-60s in his hometown Detroit while his brother Jimmie was completing military service. His early credits included the bassline on Gino Washington's "Gino Is a Coward" and vocals on J.J. Barnes' "Lonely No More" at Mickay's Records. Frank also co-wrote J.J.'s "Deeper in Love", and Steve Mancha's "Let's Party." After Jimmie's return, the Bryant Brothers were recruited into a session group for Winifred Terry of the Drifters by the group's drummer Richard Allen. The session was intended to record a song called "Honey" and a "B" side. The musical tracks were completed when the hired vocalist was deemed unfit to record the song. Frank took the opportunity to point out his and Jimmi's vocal talent. Convinced by Frank, Terry agreed to give them a stab at recording the two songs. At the subsequent session Bryant Brothers sang on "Honey" and their songs "Things Will Get Better" and "She Broke His Heart.".
