Styx is an American arena rock band that saw its greatest success in the 1970s and 1980s, penning such hits as "Come Sail Away," "Babe," "Lady," "Mr. Roboto," and "Renegade." They were the first musical act to have four consecutive multi-platinum albums. The group originally formed in the Chicago, Illinois, area in 1961 as "The Tradewinds" and played local bars while attending Chicago State University. This earliest line-up of the group included brothers Chuck and John Panozzo on bass guitar and drums, respectively; and vocalist, pianist, keyboardist, and accordion player Dennis DeYoung Reference |
