Zager and Evans were a Lincoln, Nebraska rock-pop duo of the late 1960s and early 1970s named after its two members, Denny Zager and Rick Evans. Artists Dave Trupp and Mark Dalton backed up the duo. Zager and Evans are best known for their immensely popular "In the Year 2525", written by Rick Evans. It hit number one on the pop charts in 1969. Coincidentally, it was number one on 20 July 1969 in USA, the date of the first manned moon landing by astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin. It was nominated for a special Hugo Award that same year.
