The Hollies are a well-respected British
beat and
rock and roll band, formed in the early
60s. Initially they had a squeaky-clean image and were famous for their rich vocal harmonies, rivalling those of
The Beach Boys. Between 1964 and 1969, only two Hollies songs failed to reach the UK Top 10. Their most famous member was
Graham Nash, who left in 1968 to form the super group
Crosby, Stills & Nash. Two of the core members, drummer Bobby Elliott and lead guitarist Tony Hicks, still perform with The Hollies into the new millenium.
