The Hollies

A technicolor explosion of 1967 psychedelic pop. Precise three-part harmonies meet harpsichords, banjos, and studio experimentation in a lush, whimsical rush.

It's like The Hollies took a trip to a psychedelic circus and brought back the most melodic souvenirs possible.

A vibrant, technicolor dream that balances sunshine optimism with eccentric studio experimentation.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The disorienting vocal tremolo effect on 'Lullaby to Tim' that makes the voice sound like it is underwater.
The sudden, sharp harpsichord flourishes on 'Ye Olde Toffee Shoppe' that bridge the gap between Victorian nostalgia and acid pop.
The explosive, driving energy of 'Then the Heartaches Begin' where the harmonies hit with percussive force.
