Artist Bio:
The Impressions are an American music group that originated in Chicago in 1958. The group was originally formed as a doo-wop group called The Roosters, and later changed their name to The Impressions. The group is known for their soulful vocal harmonies and politically charged lyrics, often addressing issues of civil rights and social justice.


The Impressions are best known for their hits such as "People Get Ready" and "Keep on Pushing," which became anthems of the civil rights movement. The group's lineup has included prolific musicians such as Curtis Mayfield, Jerry Butler, and Fred Cash. The Impressions were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1991, in recognition of their influence on soul music and their contributions to the civil rights movement through their music.
