Famous Siblings Of The 1970s That Prove Talent Runs In The Family

In the '70s, sibling musical groups were all the rage. Between The Osmonds, The Bee Gees, Sister Sledge, and The Carpenters, there were family music groups at every turn. But it wasn't just singing siblings that were rising to prominence. Judy and Audrey Landers were known for being sisters and actresses. The Smothers Brothers were a comedic duo, and Virginia and Grace Kennedy were twins famous for having their own language. Read on to see how these siblings came to dominate the entertainment industry side-by-side.

The Osmonds were a group of male siblings who reached the height of their success in the early '70s. Their sister, Marie Osmond, also became well-known for her career as a solo artist and for her duets with brother Danny.

Danny and Marie were so adored that they had a variety show that lasted until 1979. The siblings made a comeback in the '80s, this time honing in on country music as opposed to soft rock. Donny and Marie ended up pursuing solo careers and even had a Vegas residency for over a decade in the 2000s.
