Village People are an American disco group formed in New York City in 1977 around a concept created by producer Jacques Morali.

They are known for “Y.M.C.A.,” “Macho Man,” “In the Navy” and “Go West.” In 1979, Village People released the double album Live and Sleazy, pairing concert recordings with studio material. They later performed at Glastonbury Festival in 2013, and on New Year’s Eve 2019 they led the “Y.M.C.A.” dance during the celebration in Times Square.
