Description

The British Invasion was a mid-1960s phenomenon when UK rock and pop bands achieved massive success in America, transforming popular music worldwide. These groups blended American rock and roll, R&B, and blues with British sensibilities, creating energetic, guitar-driven sounds with catchy melodies and youthful rebellion. The movement marked a cultural shift that established Britain as a major force in rock music and influenced countless artists for decades to come.
