Should I use the article “the” with the names of group performers/musical bands/recording artists?
Isn’t it that the article “the” must really be used at the beginning of the names of group performers/musical bands/recording artists?
Examples:
• Did the Beatles immediately rise to stardom?
• What has become of the Boyzone?
• Will the Michael Learns to Rock hold a concert here?
• Is the Westlife still popular?

The Beatles.
The Who.
The Rolling Stones.
Others do not.
Pink Floyd.

Led Zeppelin.
Only those bands that have The starting their name need to be referred to that way. We don't usually say The Jimi Hendrix or The Elton John
