Blues Brothers

Blues Brothers is an American band formed in 1976 by Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi as a musical act that began on Saturday Night Live. Their sound draws on rhythm and blues, soul, and classic Chicago-style blues, often featuring covers of older R&B and soul songs performed with a driving rhythm section and a prominent horn section. Known for their stage personas in suits and sunglasses, the act expanded from television to live touring and a 1980 feature film, and is associated with bringing vintage blues and soul repertoire to wider popular audiences.
