About America’s Concert in Las Vegas:
Want to know something a little ironic about America? These dudes, while technically American citizens, weren’t actually born here. Sons of military personnel were actually born overseas. Funny, right?
America is a British-American rock band that was formed in London in 1970 by three US artists: Dewey Bunnell, Dan Peek, and Gerry Beckley. The trio met while their fathers were stationed at the United States Air Force base at RAF South Ruislip near London. America gained significant popularity in the 1970s and was known for its close vocal harmonies and light acoustic folk rock sound.
Some of their hit songs include:
“A Horse with No Name”: Released in 1971, this transatlantic hit became one of their signature songs.
“Ventura Highway”: From their second album, Homecoming (1972), this single also received widespread acclaim.
“Muskrat Love”: Featured on their album Hat Trick (1973).
“Tin Man” and “Lonely People”: Both from their album Holiday (1974).
“Sister Golden Hair” and “Daisy Jane” were included in their 1975 record Hearts.
In 1975, America released “History: America’s Greatest Hits,” a collection of their hit singles, which achieved multi-platinum status in the United States and Australia. Although Dan Peek left the group in 1977, the band continued to record material and tour regularly. Their final Top 40 hit was “The Border,” and it reached no 33 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1983. Over the years, America has left a lasting mark on the music scene and continues to be praised by fans and fellow musicians.
