About

American guitarist, singer and songwriter, best known for his work with The Crickets.
Born: September 07, 1936 in Lubbock, TX, USA.
Died: February 03, 1959 just outside of Mason City, IA, USA at 01:05am in a plane crash along with Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper (J.P. Richardson).

In spite of his brief career, Buddy Holly was very influential and is considered one of the pioneers of rock 'n' roll music. Consequently, he was among the first inductees into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame (Performer) and Songwriters Hall of Fame (1986). He died when he was 22 years old in a plane crash on en route to Moorhead, Minnesota, USA along with Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper (J.P. Richardson) and the airplane pilot. This day is referred to by many as "The Day The Music Died," which are lyrics from the song American Pie by Don McLean.
