The legendary UK band and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees The Hollies, whose hits include “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,” will be bringing its ‘The Road Is Long Tour’ to the USA in 2020. The tour will be the band’s first full USA tour in 18 years.
Alongside The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, The Hollies are one of the UK’s most celebrated bands from the 1960s British Invasion era. The band haven’t stopped touring since they formed in 1962 and were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2010 by Steve Van Zandt of Bruce Springsteen’s E-Street Band.
At the heart of The Hollies are the integral, original members – powerhouse drummer Bobby Elliott and singer, songwriter and lead guitarist Tony Hicks. Their soaring, distinctive harmonies, brilliantly crafted songs, and cultivated musicianship, coupled with The Hollies’ extensive back catalogue of memorable tunes, have ensured the longevity of one Britain’s greatest Pop/Rock bands whose music remains fresh, dynamic and timeless.
“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. The show will include all of our greatest hits and we cannot wait to get back on the road Stateside,” Bobby Elliott, The Hollies’ drummer.
“We have very fond memories of our tours in the US and how much the country means to us as a band. We look forward to seeing you all very soon,” guitarist and singer of The Hollies, Tony Hicks.
