Donald Hugh " Don " Henley (born July 22, 1947, in Gilmer, Texas) is an American rock singer, songwriter and drummer, best known as a founding member of the Eagles before launching a successful Grammy Award-winning solo career. In 2008, he was ranked the 87th greatest singer of all time by Rolling Stone magazine.

Henley has also played a founding role in several environmental and political causes, most notably the Walden Woods Project. Since 1994, he has divided his musical activities between the Eagles and his solo career.

In the late 1970s, early 1980s, Henley dated Fleetwood Mac musician Stevie Nicks, and had a long term relationship with actress/model and Bond girl Lois Chiles.

In the early 1980s, Henley was engaged to Battlestar Galactica actress Maren Jensen. His first solo album is dedicated to Jensen, who also sings harmony vocals on the song "Johnny Can’t Read". Henley and Jensen separated in 1986.

In 1995, Henley married Sharon Summerall, a former model from Texas who had lived in Paris and studied art history. Summerall suffers from MS. They have 3 children together, two girls and a boy. Their first child, a girl was born in December of 1995, their son was born in February of 1998, and their youngest, another girl, was born in the spring of 2000. Performers at the wedding included Bruce Springsteen, Sting, Billy Joel, John Fogerty, Jackson Browne, Donna Lewis, Sheryl Crow, Glenn Frey, and Tony Bennett.

Psychobilly musician Mojo Nixon, wrote a song called "Don Henley Must Die". Some years later, Mojo was playing at Austin’s Hole in the Wall when Don Henley, who was also scheduled to play in Austin, came in. Mojo announced he was going to play the song when Henley himself climbed up on stage and began beatboxing to the song, which left Mojo utterly speechless. The two have since become friends.

Henley wrote the song "Everything Is Different Now" from the album Inside Job for Sharon. It has been announced that Sharon is suffering from multiple sclerosis.

Don Henley initially attended college at Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas. He then attended North Texas State University in Denton, Texas during 1968 and 1969. He left to spend time with his father, who was dying from heart and arterial disease.

In 1970, he moved to Los Angeles to record an album with his early band, Shiloh. Shiloh’s album was produced by fellow Texan Kenny Rogers. Shortly thereafter, Henley met Glenn Frey through Amos Records in Los Angeles. They both became members of Linda Ronstadt’s backup band — touring with her was the catalyst for forming the group in the first place. As a result, two months later they became their own act, the Eagles. All four of the original Eagles are featured in the 1970 Ronstadt album Silk Purse. Later, Linda also covered one of the Eagles’ songs "Desperado".

Michael Hedges (December 31, 1953 – December 2, 1997) was an American acoustic guitarist born in Sacramento, California, and raised in Enid, Oklahoma.

Hedges attended Phillips University in Enid, studying classical guitar. It was here that he studied under his compositional mentor, E. J. Ulrich. Subsequently Hedges was a Peabody Conservatory composition major who applied his classically trained musical background in combination with various unusual techniques to the steel-string acoustic guitar. He covered a wide range of musical styles and was considered an extremely dynamic performer in concert. He was discovered in the early eighties by William Ackerman who heard him performing in a Palo Alto cafe and immediately signed him to a recording contract on the Windham Hill label.

The first two records Michael Hedges made-Breakfast in the Field and Aerial Boundaries-were milestones for the acoustic guitar. He then branched out into singing and performing more popular forms of music, although he would periodically make a return to more guitar-centred music. He wrote nearly exclusively in alternate tunings. Some of the techniques he used include slap harmonics, use of right hand hammer-ons, use of the left hand for melodic or rhythmic hammer-ons and pull offs, percussive slapping on the guitar body, as well as unusual strummings. He also made extensive use of string dampening as employed in classical guitar, and was known to insist strongly on the precise duration of sounds and silences in his pieces. He also played guitar-variants like the harp guitar, and the Trans-Trem Guitar. He was a multi-instrumentalist, playing piano, percussion, tin whistle, harmonica, and flute, among others on his albums. Bassist Michael Manring contributed to nearly all of Michael’s records.

Michael Hedges was known for having a wonderful live acoustic sound. Hedges was able to precisely equalize his instruments for the concert hall in which he was performing. He used state-of-the-art equipment such as Sunrise soundhole pickups, F.R.A.P. and later, Trance Audio soundboard transducers.

In late 1997, Hedges died at the age of 43 in a car accident along State Route 128 in Mendocino County, near Boonville. According to his manager and longtime friend Hilleary Burgess, he was driving home from San Francisco International Airport after a Thanksgiving visit to his girlfriend in Long Island, New York. His car apparently skidded off a rain-slicked S-curve and down a 120-foot cliff. Hedges was thrown from his car and appeared to have died nearly instantly. It was a few days before his body was found. His record Oracle posthumously won the 1998 Grammy Award for Best New Age Album.

His unfinished last recordings were brought to completion in the album Torched, with the help of his former manager Hilleary Burgess and friends David Crosby and Graham Nash.
