American Bandstand

American Bandstand is an American music and dance television program that aired in various versions from 1952 to 1989. It was hosted and produced by Dick Clark, who served as the show’s primary presenter for over three decades. The program featured teenagers dancing to popular songs from the Top 40 charts. It was originally broadcast from Philadelphia, where it remained from its debut in 1952 until relocating to Los Angeles in 1963. During its run, a wide range of musical acts appeared on the show, generally lip-syncing to one of their latest singles. Artists performed for a studio audience while the original recordings played for viewers at home. Freddy Cannon holds the record for the most appearances, with 110.
