2017 marks the 47th anniversary of America, the perennial favorite rock band that exploded onto the music scene in 1971 with the hit song “A Horse with No Name.” Founding band members Gerry Beckley and Dewey Bunnell met in their London high school in the late 1960s and quickly made their way to the top of the charts on the strength of their memorable tunes and signature harmonies. Following the success of their first number-one single, America became a global household name with an impressive string of hits, including “Ventura Highway” and “Sister Golden Hair.” More than 40 years later, these friends are still making music together, touring the world, and thrilling audiences with their timeless sound.
