The Walker Brothers were an American pop group, active primarily in the 1960s and early 1970s. The trio, composed of Scott Engel, John Maus, and Gary Leeds, were known for their deep, rich vocal harmonies and lush orchestral arrangements, drawing influence from pop, rock, and baroque music. They achieved considerable success in the UK, with their rendition of "Make It Easy on Yourself" and "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore" reaching number one on the charts. Despite their name, none of the members were actually related; the "Walker" moniker was a stage name adopted for its resonance with the American west.
