The Eagles
"Hotel California" performers
The Eagles is an American rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1971, known for country-inflected rock songs like "Hotel California" and "Take It Easy." The definite article is part of the official name: I'm going to see The Eagles in concert.
In casual speech, people often drop "The": Eagles is my favorite band.
Context distinguishes the band from the Philadelphia Eagles football team or eagles as birds.
