Matthew and Gunnar Nelson, the identical twin brothers behind the multiplatinum group NELSON, carry forward one of America’s most iconic show business legacies as seventh-generation entertainers. Grandsons of Ozzie and Harriet Nelson and sons of Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Ricky Nelson, they continue a 120-year family tradition of excellence and authenticity. Their self-penned debut album After the Rain introduced their harmony-driven rock sound, earning a string of hits including the chart-topping (Can’t Live Without Your) Love and Affection. That success secured their place in the Guinness Book of World Records as the only family in history with a number 1 record across three successive generations. Since then, Matthew and Gunnar have written and performed one number 1 and five top 10 singles, achieved four number 1 MTV videos, sold over five million albums, and performed for millions worldwide.
