The Turtles

The Turtles were an American rock band active from 1965 to 1971, known for blending folk rock and pop sensibilities with close vocal harmonies, chiming guitars, and occasional psychedelic touches. They moved from folk-influenced roots toward more polished pop arrangements and studio experimentation, and are remembered for their melodic songwriting and distinctive vocal blend within the 1960s US pop rock scene.
