The Eagles are an American rock band. The founding members were Glenn Frey (guitars, vocals), Don Henley (drums, vocals), Bernie Leadon (guitars, vocals) and Randy Meisner (bass guitar, vocals).
The band released On the Border in 1974, adding guitarist Don Felder as the fifth member midway through the recording of the album. Guitarist and vocalist Joe Walsh also joined the band in 1975 replacing Leadon. Meisner left the band in 1977 and was replaced by Timothy B. Schmit. The Eagles disbanded in July 1980 but reunited in 1994 for the album Hell Freezes Over, a mix of live and new studio tracks. They toured consistently and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998.
Following the death of Frey in January 2016, Henley stated in several interviews that he did not think the band would perform again. However, the Eagles continued performing in 2017 with guest musicians Deacon Frey (son of Glenn) and Vince Gill.
