The Grass Roots

4 concerts

The Grass Roots, formed in LA, had major hits like "Let's Live for Today" and "Midnight Confessions," earning seven gold singles. Originated by P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri, they underwent various line-ups, including members like Rob Grill and Creed Bratton. Despite a complex history, their music defined 60s and 70s AM radio. Rob Grill later revived the band for oldies tours, ensuring their lasting legacy.

The Lovin' Spoonful

11 concerts

The Lovin' Spoonful, formed in 1965 by John Sebastian and Zal Yanovsky, were key in challenging the British Invasion with hits like "Do You Believe in Magic?" and "Summer in the City." Known for melodic, cheery folk-rock, they rose to fame with Sebastian's unique songwriting and collaborations. The band's success waned post-1967 after drug scandals; Sebastian departed in 1968. Jerry Yester joined later. Despite challenges, the band remains iconic in '60s rock history.
