The roots of rock ‘n’ roll originate in multiple genres of music, but on a more narrow sense, rock artists can be the root of their own rock ‘n’ roll family tree. With the focus on two artists (Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and the career of Paul Rodgers) the Timmons Brothers trace the roots of each and the number of artists/bands from their family tree of rock ‘n’ roll. In part 1 of a series, you may be surprised how far their ripple effect extends. “Roots and Branches of the Rock ‘n’ Roll Family Tree”

Friday, February 7, 1964 began the renaissance of ‘rock ‘n’ roll music in America as the Beatles landed at the JFK airport in New York City and became the vanguard of the British Invasion. The Timmons Brothers will analyze and review the contemporary reports of 1964 and the skepticism that surrounded the possibility of success for British artists in the United States. Such questions as timing, the music landscape and the type of artist before 1964 will be addressed and why 1964 may be the benchmark year in rock’s history. “The Beatles in 1964 and the Rebirth of American Rock”
