The Everly Brothers was an American musical duo consisting of Isaac Donald "Don" Everly and Phillip "Phil" Everly, known for their steel-string acoustic guitar playing and close-harmony singing.

The brothers enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve in 1961, which coincided with a reduction in output, though they continued to release hit singles into the early 1960s.
