Terry Sylvester of the Hollies made an appearance at the 2024 International Society of Hotel Associations Winter Meeting held recently in Amelia Island, Florida where the Rock ‘Roll of Fame inductee shared stories and songs during an intimate interview with BMI’s Dan Spears.  Sylvester who was inducted into the Rock Hall with his fellow Hollies members in 2010, performed a handful of the band’s biggest hits including “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother,” “Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress” and “The Air That I Breath.” The Hollies were formed in the UK in 1962 and proceeded to record 22 songs that appeared on the Billboard Hot 100. Sylvester, a native of Liverpool, joined the band in 1968 after Graham Nash’s departure. ISHA is an organization that represents the interests of the state hotel and lodging associations. This year’s conference was attended by the CEOs of the various state hotel & lodging associations and their staffers as well the senior leadership of the American Hotel & Lodging Association and the major hotel chains.
