America is a soft-rock group hailing from England. They met while they were in school, and all happened to be sons of military personnel. Eventually, they moved to the U.S.

America had 11 hits in the top 40 including A Horse With No Name and Sister Golden Hair. The original group lineup was Dewey Bunnell, Gerry Beckly, and Dan Peek. Dewey Bunnell died recently.
