The Exciters were an American pop music group of the 1960s. They were originally a girl group, although a male member was added later. The leader was Brenda Reid, who was noted for her powerful voice.

The Exciters' first hit, produced by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, was "Tell Him" in 1962. Other hits included "He's Got the Power," "Get Him," and the original "Do-Wah-Diddy," covered shortly after its appearance by Manfred Mann, for whom it was an international hit.
