Crosby, Stills & Nash (CSN) is a folk rock/rock supergroup made up of David
Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash, also known as Crosby, Stills, Nash &
Young (CSNY) when joined by occasional fourth member Neil Young. They are
noted for their intricate vocal harmonies, often tumultuous interpersonal
relationships, political activism, and lasting influence on music and culture.

Initially formed by the trio of David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash,
the genesis of the group lies in two 1960s rock bands, The Byrds and The
Hollies, and the demise of a third, Buffalo Springfield. Friction existed
between David Crosby and his bandmates in the Byrds, and he was dismissed
from the Byrds in the fall of 1967.

By early 1968, Buffalo Springfield had also disintegrated over personal
issues, and after aiding in putting together the band’s final album, Stephen
Stills found himself unemployed by the summer. He and Crosby began
meeting informally and jamming, the results of one encounter in Florida on
Crosby’s schooner being the song “Wooden Ships,” composed in collaboration
with another guest, Paul Kantner.

Graham Nash had been introduced to Crosby when the Byrds had toured the
UK in 1966, and when the Hollies ventured to California in 1968, Nash
resumed his acquaintance with Crosby. At a party in July 1968 at Cass
Elliot's house, Nash asked Stills and Crosby to repeat their performance of a
new song by Stills, “You Don't Have To Cry,” with Nash improvising a second
harmony part. The vocals gelled, and the three realized that they had a
unique vocal chemistry.

Creatively frustrated with the Hollies, Nash decided to quit and throw his lot
in with Crosby and Stills. After failing an audition with the Beatles' Apple
Records, they were signed to Atlantic Records by Ahmet Ertegün, who had
been a fan of Buffalo Springfield and was disappointed by that band's
demise. From the outset, given their respective band histories, the trio
decided not to be locked into a group structure, using their surnames as
identification to ensure independence and a guarantee against the band
simply continuing without one of them, as had both the Byrds and the Hollies
after the departures of Crosby and Nash. Their record contract with Atlantic
reflected this, positioning CSN with a unique flexibility unheard of for an
untested group. The trio also picked up a unique management team in Elliot
Roberts and David Geffen, who had engineered their situation with Atlantic
and would help to consolidate clout for the group in the industry. Roberts
kept the band focused and dealt with egos, while Geffen handled the
business deals, since, in Crosby’s words, they needed a shark and Geffen
was it. Roberts and Geffen would play key roles in securing the band’s
success during the early years.

When it was announced that the band was forming, they ran into a slight
contractual problem. Nash was already signed to Epic Records, the North
American distributor of records by the Hollies, while Crosby and Stills were
signed to Atlantic. In order to resolve this problem, Geffen engineered a deal
whereby Nash was essentially traded to Atlantic for the rights to Richie
Furay's band Poco; Furay was signed to Atlantic as a result of his membership
in Buffalo Springfield.
