Big Brother and the Holding Company formed in San Francisco in the mid-1960s as part of the psychedelic music scene that also produced the Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane. The band is important and influential in itself, but best known for being the band that made Janis Joplin famous when it hooked up with her in 1966. Though Joplin left the band at the end of 1968, it soldiered on until 1972.
The band reformed in 1987 and has been touring part-time ever since with most of its original members, including Sam Andrew, Peter Albin and Dave Getz. Various female lead singers have worked with the band, including Lisa Battle and Halley DeVestern.
