Sir Elton Hercules John, CBE (born Reginald Kenneth Dwight on 25 March 1947) is an English pop and rock singer, composer and pianist.

In a career spanning five decades, Elton John has sold over 250 million records and has over 50 Top 40 hits, making him one of the most successful musicians of all time.



Donald Hugh Henley (born July 22, 1947 in Gilmer, Texas) is an American rock musician who is the drummer and one of the lead singers and songwriters of the band ‘Eagles’. Since the 80´s he had a successful solo career and has played a founding role in several causes.

Henley’s music often is running social commentary. One of his more famous songs is “Dirty Laundry. ” Its origins date back to 1980, when Henley was put on probation for possession of a narcotic and fined for contributing to the delinquency of a minor. The ensuing media circus and on-air pundits claiming that his career was over led to the writing of the song, which continues to be an indictment against the broadcast news media. Similarly, “Johhny Can’t Read”, also on his Can’t Stand Still album, continues to resound as a commentary on the educational system.



John Mellencamp (born 7 October 1951 in Seymour, Indiana) is an American singer and songwriter, known for a long and successful recording and performing career highlighted by a series of 1980s hits, including “Jack and Diane”, and by his role in the Farm Aid charity event. Mellencamp lives in Bloomington, Indiana, and is married to former supermodel Elaine Irwin Mellencamp.

John’s first record released was under the stage name “Johnny Cougar” at the behest of Tony DeFries, his first manager. Mellencamp claims it was against his knowledge and will, and he hated the name. A few years later in 1982, he made his break through with the album “American Fool” which includes his hit single “Jack and Diane” under the stage name “John Cougar Mellencamp”. The story of that couple was years later continued with the song “Eden Is Burning” (1998), where Jack and Diane separate. He soon dropped “Cougar” moniker altogether, and has been known henceforth as “John Mellencamp”.

Mellencamp has always been socially and politically active and supported the “Vote for Change” Tour in 2004 opposing the policies of President George W. Bush.

Mellencamp’s new album Freedom’s Road came out January 23rd and went to no 5 in the American Billboard charts.



Jackson Browne was born in Heidelberg, Germany (his father was an American serviceman stationed in Germany), but moved to the Highland Park district of Los Angeles, California at an early age and began singing folk music locally. In 1966, his career began by joining The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.

A precociously talented songwriter, Browne signed a publishing contract with Nina Music, and his songs were performed by Tom Rush, Eagles, Linda Ronstadt, the Byrds and Steve Noonan, among others.

After moving to Greenwich Village, New York, Browne worked, for a brief period, in Tim Buckley’s back-up band and on Nico’s Chelsea Girl. After leaving New York City, Browne formed a folk band with Ned Doheney and Jack Wilce.

In 1971, Browne signed with Asylum Records and released Jackson Browne (1972), which included “Doctor My Eyes”, a major hit. He didn’t sustain pop success, though, and his next album, For Everyman (1973), while considered of high quality, was a commercial failure.

Late for the Sky (1974) established a significant audience for Browne, and fans and critics often consider this Browne’s best album. Highlights include the searching title song, the elegiac “For a Dancer” and apocalyptic “Before the Deluge”, the pure arrangements featuring David Lindley’s evocative violin and guitar playing, and the Magritte-inspired cover. The title track was also featured in Martin Scorsese’s film, Taxi Driver.
