Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The Hollies are an English rock and roll group, formed in Manchester in the early 1960s. Named after Buddy Holly, they became known for their their distinctive vocal harmony style, courtesy of lead vocalist Allan Clarke, and guitarist/vocalists Graham Nash and Tony Hicks, with Terry Sylvester taking over Nash's end of the harmonies after the latter departed the band. Though the Hollies didn't quite achieve the same level of success as their contemporaries The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, they had a wide variety of hit singles in their native England and enjoyed some success internationally. They had a few hits in the United States, but they are perhaps best known in that country for being the group that Graham Nash was in prior to Crosby, Stills, and Nash. The Hollies were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010. |
