A lot of the American bands are Identified from their front man. Like Elvis Presley and the Jordanaires, Buddy Holly and the Crickets, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, Prince and the Revolution and The Jimi Hendrix Experience.

Actually The Jimi Hendrix Experience is far more a British band than it is American. Apart from Jimi, they're all British and the band was established in Britain.
