| Additional Information | The Monkees was the name of a band created for a TV show by the same name in 1966. The band was comprised of Micky Dolenz, Davy Jones, Michael Nesmith, and Peter Tork. The show ran on NBC from 1966-1968, but the pop rock band gained real popularity, with hit songs such as “I’m a Believer.” The television program won two Emmys in its first year and the group had four albums hit the Billboard chart in one year. In the 1980s, the group toured and made special appearances around the country; in 1996, they released a reunion album. In the years after the death of Jones and Took, Nesmith and Dolenz went on tour as the Monkees once more in 2021. |
