Doris Day
Some folks know Doris Day better for her acting chops. At first, she joined a big band in 1939. She earned her breakthrough after six years in the industry. She left Les Brown & His Band of Renown to launch her solo career, which saw a lot of success. From 1947 to 1967, she recorded over 650 songs.
Joan Baez
In 1941, the legendary Joan Baez was born. She made a name for herself as an incredible activist, musician, and singer-songwriter. In the counterculture movement of the ‘60s, she was a major figure. Even though her folk music made the biggest waves, she also dipped her toes in the gospel, country, pop, and rock. Are you aware that she was the first person to record Bob Dylan? At any rate, she made it big as a global star over the years. She was finally inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame in April 2017.
