Blondie is an American rock band formed in New York City in 1974 by the singer Debbie Harry and the guitarist Chris Stein. The band was a pioneer in the American new wave genre and scene of the mid 70s.
The band's first two albums contained strong elements of punk and new wave. Although successful in the UK and Australia, Blondie was regarded as an underground band in the US until the release of their critically acclaimed third album in 1978 "Parallel Lines". Over the next two years, the band released a string of hit singles, including "Heart of Glass" (US No. 1), "One Way or Another", "Dreaming", "Call Me" (US No. 1), "Atomic", "The Tide Is High" (US No. 1), and "Rapture" (US No. 1).
The band was inducted into the "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame" in 2006. Blondie has sold over 40 million records worldwide.
