The Hollies are a British pop rock group formed in 1962.
One of the leading British groups of the 1960s and into the mid 1970s, they are known for their distinctive three-part vocal harmony style.
Allan Clarke and Graham Nash founded the band as a Merseybeat-type music group in Manchester, although some of the band members came from towns further north in East Lancashire.
Graham Nash left the group in 1968 to form Crosby, Stills & Nash.
The Hollies are one of the few UK groups of the early 1960s, along with the Rolling Stones, who have never disbanded and continue to record and perform.
In recognition of their achievements, the Hollies were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010.
