The Hollies
With the single “Bus stop”, the British band achieved international chart positions in 1966 and became part of the so-called British Invasion. The group had already appeared in the US charts a year earlier with “Look through any window”. Distinctive harmony vocals and catchy melodies are among the recognisable features of their releases.
The Hollies – Background & Discography
Founded in the early 1960s in Manchester, The Hollies were regularly present in the singles charts, especially between 1963 and 1975. Among their best-known songs, alongside “Bus stop”, are “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother” and “The Air That I Breathe”. During this period, the band released numerous albums and singles on Parlophone and later Polydor. Their style ranges between beat, pop and rock, with multi-part vocal passages forming a central element of their sound. To this day, their early recordings are regularly reissued and sought after by music enthusiasts.
