The Searchers (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (902 words) |
 | The Searchers are a British rock act who emerged as part of the Merseybeat era along with The Beatles, The Swinging Blue Jeans and Gerry and the Pacemakers. |
| Kelly soon left to be replaced by Norman McGarry and it is this line-up—McNally, Pender (as he soon became known), Jackson and McGarry—that is usually cited as the original foursome. |
| As musical styles evolved, the Searchers could not keep up and as a result, the hits ran out and while they continued to record for Liberty and RCA, ended up on the British "Chicken in a Basket" circuit although they did score a minor US hit in 1971 with Desdemona. |
