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 No. 1 record across three successive generations.

Since then, Matthew and Gunnar have written and performed one No. 1 and five Top 10 singles, achieved four No. 1 MTV videos, sold over five million albums, and performed for millions worldwide. Known for their dynamic stage presence and trademark blonde hair, they remain respected songwriters, producers, and positive ambassadors for resilience and creativity.

From their early days playing original songs in a California hayloft to becoming MTV-era icons, the Nelson twins have honored their family’s legacy while carving their own enduring mark in American music.
