"America" is an English-American folk rock band, originally made up of Gerry Beckley, Dewey Bunnell, and Dan Peek. The three original members were just beyond their teenage years when they became a musical sensation in 1972. They reached a pinnacle of success in the early to mid 1970s and into the early years of the 1980s. The group's best known hits are "A Horse with No Name", "Sister Golden Hair" -- both of #1 hits -- "Ventura Highway", and "Tin Man".
Even though their music was not usually appreciated by critics, the commercial success of the band's singles and albums did not suffer. Their popularity was sufficient to attract the services of famed Beatles producer George Martin for a run of seven albums. The group had to endure the loss of one of its original members near the height of its success, but Beckley and Bunnell returned the act to the top of charts as a duo with "You Can Do Magic" in 1982. Touring for well over thirty years, America still attracts enough fans to keep them performing over 100 shows a year. During January 2007, "America" released Here & Now, the band's first major label studio album in over two decades.
