The Velvet Underground are one of the most influential bands in the history of alternative music. Formed in New York in the mid-1960s and closely associated with Andy Warhol’s art scene, the band combined experimental rock, avant-garde ideas, and raw lyrical honesty to create music that would shape generations of artists.
