Blues Rock
Formed in Toronto in 1967, The Band consisted of Canadians Rick Danko, Garth Hudson, Richard Manuel, Robbie Robertson, and American Levon Helm. Originally The Hawks, they backed Ronnie Hawkins before gaining fame with Bob Dylan during his controversial "Going Electric" tours. Relocating to Woodstock, they recorded the groundbreaking "The Basement Tapes" with Dylan. Renaming themselves "The Band," they produced acclaimed albums like "Music From Big Pink" and "The Band." Their sound, blending rock, folk, jazz, and R&B, was central to the Americana movement. Known for hits like "The Weight" and "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down," they were inducted into both the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They received a GRAMMY Lifetime Achievement Award and were featured in Martin Scorsese’s "The Last Waltz" concert film. Rolling Stone ranked them among the greatest artists and included their songs and albums in their all-time best lists.
