The Band are considered one of the most popular and influential groups ever in American music. They defined the Woodstock generation and their music is a part of the Canadian and American landscape. There was a collective sound to “The Band”, but it made up five distinct individual voices and instruments mixing folk, blues, gospel, R&B, classical, and rock & roll. Revered for their musical prowess and unique blend of sounds, The Band made music that was both earthy and mystical. More than any other group, they put rock & roll back in touch with it’s roots.
