The Hollies

The Hollies were a rock band led by Graham Nash, who would later go on to become a member of the supergroup Crosby, Stills, and Nash. They were notably successful, with three bestselling albums and numerous hit singles. Originally just another British Invasion band trying to capitalize on the popularity of The Beatles, the group later tried different styles such as the hard rock hit Long Cool Woman. That song would go on to become a classic rock staple. Their first compilation was a bestseller. Their name was taken from early rocker Buddy Holly.
