- The Grass Roots were created by the storied producer/songwriter duo of P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri under the direction of Lou Adler in 1966. The group frequently hit the Billboard charts until the early 70's with several lineups of musicians. Their music has stood the test of time by appearing in numerous soundtracks and films since their heyday. The Grass Roots maintain a nationwide touring schedule at casinos and resorts as the headlining act, due to the durability of their many charting rock and roll songs.
