Blondie is an American rock band that first gained fame in the late
1970s, and has so far sold over 60 million records. The band was a pioneer in
the early American punk rock and new wave scenes. Its first two albums
contained strong elements of these genres, and although successful in the United Kingdom and Australia,
Blondie was regarded as an
underground band in the United
States until the release of Parallel
Lines in 1978. Over the next three years, the band achieved several
hit singles and was noted for its eclectic mix of musical styles incorporating
elements of disco, pop and reggae, while retaining a basic style as a New Wave
band.
Lead singer Deborah Harry
achieved a level of celebrity that eclipsed other band members, leading to
tension within the group. Following a poorly received album and with core
member Chris Stein diagnosed with a potentially fatal disease, the group
disbanded in 1982. As members pursued other projects, Blondie's reputation grew
over the following decade and the group reformed in 1997, achieving renewed
success and a number one single in the United Kingdom with
"Maria" in 1999. The group toured and performed throughout the world
over the following years, and was inducted into both the Rock and Roll Hall of
Fame and the Rock Walk of Fame in 2006. |
