Fleetwood Mac is a British-American rock band that has left an indelible mark on the history of music with an illustrious career spanning more than five decades. Formed in London in 1967, the group originally consisted of guitarist Peter Green, drummer Mick Fleetwood, guitarist Jeremy Spencer, and bassist John McVie, from whom the band takes its name—Fleetwood and McVie's surnames. Initially a blues outfit, they experienced moderate success during their early years but found their true calling and audience when they transitioned to a more pop and rock-oriented sound in the mid-1970s.

The band's golden era came with the addition of vocalist Stevie Nicks and guitarist Lindsey Buckingham in 1974, which set the stage for a series of chart-topping albums and singles. Fleetwood Mac's 1977 release "Rumours" is one of the best-selling albums of all time, featuring timeless classics such as "Go Your Own Way" and "Dreams." The group's distinctive blend of soft rock, pop, and intricate vocal harmonies, coupled with their tumultuous personal relationships, fueled the captivating and emotional depth of their music. Despite lineup changes over the years, Fleetwood Mac has continued to tour and release music, delighting new and old fans alike with their enduring legacy. Their impact on rock music is indisputable, and they remain one of the most beloved and influential bands in the genre's storied history.
