The Hollies (formed in 1962) are a notorious English rock band, known for their role in the 1960’s rock invasion hailing from Lacashire, England, UK.

Formed of primary school best friends Allan Clarke and Graham Nash originally under the moniker the Deltas, the Hollies derived their name from the pair’s admiration for the seasonal plant. Debuting alongside bassist Eric Heydock, drummer Don Rathbone and short-lived guitarist Vic Steele, the band soon came to the attention of EMI’s Parlophone Records who offered the band an audition, which led to the band recording a session at Abbey Road studios with guitarist Tony Hicks replacing Steele and Bobby Elliott replacing Rathbone on drums.

The band’s distinctive three-part harmonies became synonymous with the Hollie’s sound and drew comparisons with the Everly Brothers and later played on their album “Two Yanks Go to England”. The Hollie’s debut singles “(Ain’t That) Just Like Me” and “Searchin’” were covers of Coasters’ songs and subsequently earned a No. 2 spot for their cover of Doris Troy’s “Just One Look”.

Following the releases the Hollies left the world of R&B and soul covers behind and began crafting music in their own right. Their first two self-written hits were “We’re Through” and “Yes I Will” of which both reached the Top 10 in the UK singles charts.

Yet to reach commercial success in the U.S. the Hollies earned their first No. 1 hit in the UK with their single “I’m Alive”. The band’s breakthrough into the U.S. came with the single “Look Through Any Window” at the tail end of 1965 marking the most successful period of the Hollies’ musical excursions. Popular singles from around the time included “I Can’t Let Go”, “Bus Stop”, “Stop Stop Stop” and “On a Carousel”. Noted for their luscious harmonies and addictive melodies the band represented the golden age and earned lots of radio airplay.

Not received with the same respect as the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, the Hollies were largely seen as a singles band in an era gearing towards albums. Dissatisfied with the dependence on commercial pop Graham Nash left the band in 1968 teaming up with Stephen Stills and David Crosby to form the supergroup Crosby, Stills and Nash, Nash was replaced by Terry Sylvester.

Despite laregly being known as a ’60’s band the Hollies continued to produce hits well into the seventies including the pop ballad “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother” which spent 4 weeks in the U.S Top 10 and peaked at No. 3 in Britain. Vocalist Allan Clarke departed the group soon after, which ended up as a one-year hiatus replaced by Swedish singer Mikael Rikfors. Clarke’s returned marked one of the Hollies’ last hits with the single “The Air That I Breathe” another ballad of a similar ilk to “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother”.

Subsequently, the long-lived line-up of Clarke, Hicks, Elliott, Calvert and Sylvester ceased to exist after 1981 as Calvert and Sylvester left. However Nash, Hicks and Elliott reunited for the album “What Goes Around” and following tour. Soon after the group recorded a harmony rich cover of the Supremes’ “Stop! In the Name of Love” and continued to tour and record. Since then the band has released a 30th Anniversary compilation album, a Greatest Hits album on their 40th anniversary in 2003 and a six-disc set entitled “The Long Road Home”. With a line-up of Hicks, Elliott, bassist Ray Stiles and keyboardist Ian Parker, the Hollies released a new album of original material titled “Then, Now, Always” in 2009.

Live reviews

When I saw the Hollies in concert, it was with a different lead singer. Granted, Allan Clark made the Hollies the Hollies for the most part, but I still enjoyed the concert. Even without Graham Nash. The songs were just as upbeat as you expected them to be, and I had fun with the many other people that were there.

Years and years have passed since the Hollies were at their most popular, but there is still a groups of people that want to relive that time, and that showed in how many people were in attendance. There were younger people, too, who didn't realize that the band members had changed, but once they started playing their more well-known songs, they were enjoying it as much as everybody else and started clapping along with everybody else.

This could have felt like a cover band for the original, but, quite frankly, I really enjoyed it, and it looked like everyone else around me enjoyed it as well. It takes you back in time, and if you close your eyes, you can feel how it was with the originals. As long as the music is good, then you can still be transported to that time and bring back the memories you had before

Who can resist a catchy hook, rich harmonies and tuneful melodies?

The Hollies’ music featured all of these and more. Their infectious style landed twenty-two singles on the charts, making them one of the most commercially successfully bands of the British Invasion.  Indeed, the Hollies charted more hits on Billboard's   Hot 100 from 1964 to 1975 than any other British band except for the Beatles, Dave Clark Five and the Rolling Stones. Their tally of twenty-two charting singles during that period bested even the Who! More on rockhall.org ...

The hollies announce 60th anniversary us tour 2022.

Posted by Buddy Iahn | Nov 19, 2021

The band returns to the US after 20 years

One of the most iconic bands in British music and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees, The Hollies, are celebrating their 60th anniversary with their return to the US in 2022. The dates mark the band’s first US tour in over two decades and take in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, New Jersey, and Washington DC.

“‘We felt like this is something no other band gets to do, celebrate six decades together, 60 years of this band and these songs means so much to us and so many others,” says Tony Hicks, the band’s original guitar player.

“We’re incredibly excited performing for everyone on what will be some of the most special shows in the history of The Hollies,” adds the Hollies’ drummer of six decades, Bobby Elliott.

Tickets are now on sale via Ticketmaster .

Famed for their soaring, distinctive melodies and brilliantly crafted songs, the 60th Anniversary Tour will see The Hollies performing their best-known hits including “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother,” “The Air That I Breathe,” “Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress),” “Bus Stop,” “Carrie-Anne” and “Sorry Suzanne.”

The line-up includes powerhouse drummer Bobby Elliott, and singer, songwriter, and lead guitarist Tony Hicks, both of whom are original members of the band. They are joined by lead singer Peter Howarth, as well as bass player Ray Stiles, Keyboardist Ian Parker, and Steve Lauri on Rhythm Guitar.

Celebrated as one of the most influential bands from the 1960s British Invasion era alongside the likes of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, The Hollies have had over 20 worldwide hits, including No. 1 singles in both the US and UK. They have spent an astonishing 263 weeks in the UK’s top 40 official singles chart, and have been performing continuously since their formation in 1962.

Their cultivated musicianship, coupled with the Hollies’ extensive back catalog of memorable rock ‘n’ roll tunes, has ensured the longevity of one of the greatest groups to emerge from the early 1960’s British Rock Revolution.

In 1995, they have bestowed the coveted Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contribution To British Music, and in 2010 were inducted into the American Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame for their “impact on the evolution, development, and perpetuation of Rock and Roll.”

The Hollies Plot First United States Tour in 18 Years

By Jon Blistein

Jon Blistein

Storied British Invasion outfit the Hollies will embark on their first full tour of the United States in 18 years this summer.

The Road Is Long tour will launch July 8th at the Mountain Winery in Saratoga, California, and over the next month, the Hollies will criss-cross the U.S. stopping in cities like Los Angeles, San Antonio, Austin, Chicago and Washington, D.C. The tour wraps July 26th at the Wilbur in Boston.

Tickets will go on sale on March 6th at 10 a.m. local time, save for the opening Saratoga show, which will go on sale at a later date. An artist pre-sale and VIP packages will also be available starting March 3rd. Complete information is available on the Hollies’ website .

“We are very excited to bring our The Road Is Long tour to the USA and play for all the fans who have waited so long to see us back in America,” Hollies drummer Bobby Elliott said in a statement. “The show will include all of our greatest hits and we cannot wait to get back on the road Stateside.”

The Hollies formed in 1962, first as a duo of Graham Nash and Allan Clarke, before expanding into a full group. Throughout the Sixties, the group notched many major U.K. hits, like “Just One Look,” “I’m Alive” and “I Can’t Let Go.” Although their chart success wasn’t as robust in the United States, the Hollies still found plenty of acclaim here, even scoring one of their biggest hits, 1972’s “Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress,” after Nash had left the band. The Hollies were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010.

Elliott and guitarist/singer Tony Hicks are the two longest-serving members of the Hollies’ current lineup, which also features Ray Stiles, Ian Parker, Peter Howarth and Steve Lauri.
