Biography:
Although the Bellamy Brothers are the most successful duo in country music history, they have never been favored by the critics. That doesn`t mean their music was rote, by-the-books formulaic country pop. More than most acts of the late `70s and `80s, the Bellamys pushed the borders of country music, adding strong elements of rock, reggae, and even rap. Nearly a decade after their first hit -- the 1975 pop chart-topper, southern-rock tinged "Let Your Love Flow" -- the brothers had earned a stack of best-selling records, as well as critical respect came by the late `80s. By that time, they had firmly established themselves as the top duo of the `80s, both in terms of popularity and musical diversity. They may not have sustained their popularity throughout the `90s, yet they continued to perform and record (on their own label, Bellamy Brothers Records), to a faithful fan base.
