Lead singer Emile Straker's whistling is one of the most distinctive components of their sound, and often serves as the primary focus of the musical interludes in their songs. They have produced several memorable covers in this style, including versions of "Island in the Sun" (originally by Harry Belafonte), "Jamaica Farewell", "Hot Hot Hot", "Mary's Boy Child" and "Big Bamboo". The Merrymen have performed for British Royalty on three occasions. Also, they have performed for Ronald Reagan and Nancy Reagan during their 1982 visit to Barbados. The Merrymen where invited back by the President and First Lady to the White House.

In 1961, a young man named Emile Straker was studying commercial art in Canada and working part time. On the side, he was also a member of a trio called The Calypso Bandits, which made a record. Later that year, Emile returned home to Barbados and took a job as a salesman for Geddes Grant, a manufacturers’ representative. This album, Introducing the Merrymen, became one of The Merrymen’s most successful records and contained You Sweeten Me, Ring Ting Ting, The Fugitive and God Bless Bim, among others. When the show closed in Blackpool, we made the long trek back to Barbados. The record preceded us and was on sale and getting airplay on the radio stations.
