Graham Nash is the legendary musician and founding member of the iconic bands Crosby, Stills & Nash. Graham Nash's songs defined a generation and helped shape the history of rock and roll—he's written over 200 songs. From the opening salvos of the British Rock Revolution to the last shudders of Woodstock, he has rocked and rolled wherever music mattered. Nash has helped shape the world around him through ideas, innovations, and influential works of art for more than four decades. One of music's most legendary singer-songwriters and vocal harmonists, Nash has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice—once with Crosby, Stills & Nash in 1997 in 2010 once with The Hollies; Nash was also inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2009. Nash departed The Hollies in '68, and went on to form Crosby, Stills & Nash (CSN) with David Crosby and Stephen Stills, after connecting and harmonizing with them in Laurel Canyon. Among the classic songs he's composed for CSN (and CSN&Y)—with whom he still tours and records—are "Marrakesh Express," "Teach Your Children," "Our House," "Lady Of The Island," and "Just A Song Before I Go." The trio's landmark 1969 album "Crosby, Stills and Nash" was a very strong debut for the band, instantly lifting them to stardom. Neil Young joined them for the follow-up, 1970's #1 CSN&Y debut "Déjà Vu" and earned CSNY that year's GRAMMY® for Best New Artist—both albums are included on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time. Other highlights include the 1971 CSN&Y live double-LP "4 Way Street," CSN's "Daylight Again" (1982), CSNY's "American Dream" (1988), "Looking Forward" (1999), CSNY's "Deja Vu - Living With War" album and movie (2008).Nash was appointed OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) by Queen Elizabeth in 2010. That same year, the group with which he first rose to fame, British Invasion icons The Hollies (named for Buddy Holly), were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their mid-to-late 1960s chart success rivaled that of the Beatles and the Stones with hits including "On A Carousel," "Bus Stop," "Carrie Anne," "King Midas In Reverse," and "Pay You Back With Interest." As a solo artist, Nash's repertoire reaches back to 1971's "Songs For Beginners," which introduced signature songs including "Military Madness" and "Chicago - We Can Change The World"—it is bookended by 2002's Songs For Survivors, his latest solo title. Nash's ongoing collaboration as a duo with David Crosby also dates back that far, a partnership captured early on with the 1971 live recording "Another Stoney Evening."
