Seals and Crofts were an American soft rock duo consisting of Jim Seals (born October 17, 1941) and Dash Crofts (born August 14, 1938), who achieved fame in the early 1970s with a string of hit records. Their music, characterized by its melodic sophistication and tight harmonies, was a staple of the era's easy listening radio waves. Both Texas natives, Seals and Crofts played together in various bands before striking out on their own in 1969.

The duo's signature hit, "Summer Breeze," released in 1972, cemented their place in the musical pantheon with its evocative lyrics and gentle, inviting melody. Other notable songs include "Diamond Girl," "Get Closer," and "We May Never Pass This Way (Again)," all of which showcased their distinctive blend of folk, rock, pop, and soft jazz elements. Throughout the 1970s, Seals and Crofts were known not only for their harmonious music but also for their commitment to the Baháʼí Faith, which often informed the themes and messages in their music. After a period of relative obscurity, they attempted a brief comeback in the 1990s but largely remained out of the spotlight, leaving behind a legacy of classic hits that continue to resonate with audiences today.
