Artist Bio:
The Doors were an American rock band formed in 1965 in Los Angeles. The group consisted of vocalist Jim Morrison, keyboardist Ray Manzarek, guitarist Robby Krieger, and drummer John Densmore. They were known for their unique sound that blended rock, blues, and psychedelic elements. The Doors achieved commercial success with hits like "Light My Fire," "Break On Through (To the Other Side)," and "Riders on the Storm." Despite facing controversies due to Morrison's provocative performances and behavior, The Doors are considered one of the most influential bands of the 1960s. Jim Morrison's untimely death in 1971 marked the end of the band's career, but their music continues to resonate with audiences worldwide.
