The Buckinghams are an American sunshine pop band that gained popularity in the late 1960s. Known for their distinctive brass-tinged sound, they were led by vocalists Dennis Tufano and Carl Giammarese. Their most successful hit, "Kind of a Drag", topped the Billboard Hot 100 in 1967, underlining their influence in the sunshine pop subgenre. Despite their short-lived peak popularity, The Buckinghams' fusion of pop and brass elements remains an influential contribution to the mid-20th century American music scene.
