The Bee Gees were a legendary pop music group formed by brothers Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. Born on the Isle of Man and raised in Manchester, England, and later Australia, the trio began performing together in the late 1950s. They achieved their first major success in the late 1960s with harmonic pop and rock hits such as "To Love Somebody" and "Massachusetts." In the mid-1970s, the Bee Gees reinvented themselves with a new disco sound, becoming icons of the genre. Their work on the soundtrack for the 1977 film *Saturday Night Fever* catapulted them to international superstardom. With hits like "Stayin' Alive," "How Deep Is Your Love," and "Night Fever," they dominated the charts and helped define the disco era. The group's success continued into the 1980s and 1990s, both as performers and as songwriters for other artists, including Diana Ross, Barbra Streisand, and Kenny Rogers. The Bee Gees were known for their tight harmonies, innovative production, and Barry’s distinctive falsetto. Despite personal and professional challenges, including the deaths of Maurice in 2003 and Robin in 2012, Barry Gibb has continued to perform, preserving the legacy of the group. The Bee Gees are regarded as one of the most successful and influential music groups of all time, with over 220 million records sold worldwide and an enduring impact on pop and disco music. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997.
