Дон (р. 1 февраля 1937) и Фил (р. 19 января 1939) родились в семье музыкантов и уже в малые годы были привлечены родителями к участию в музыкальных радиопрограммах. Уже в 1953 году Дон сочинил песню "Thou Shalt Not Steal", которую взял в свой репертуар Чет Аткинс. Отец понял, что сыновьями надо заняться всерьез и отправил их обивать пороги звукозаписывающих компаний. После множества отказов братьев наконец-то приняли в "Cadence Records". Эта фирма и выпустила их сингл "Bye Bye Love", занявший в 1957 году второе место в американских чартах. Этотрелизпредварилвереницухитов, изданныхнатойже "Cadence" - "Wake Up Little Susie", "All I Have to Do Is Dream", "Bird Dog", "('Til) I Kissed You" и "When Will I Be Loved". Слушателям пришлась по вкусу уникальная особенность звучания "Everly brothers", сочетавшая в себе кантри, рок'н'ролл, блюз и рокабилли.
В 1960 году братья ушли с "Cadence" и заключили контракт с тогда еще молодой фирмой "Warner Bros". Это мало где упоминается, но Дон и Фил внесли немалый вклад в приобретение этим лейблом мажорного статуса.
К самим же Эверли большой коммерческий успех пришел именно на "Warner". Их первый сингл на этом лейбле моментально стал хитом и оккупировал верхние строчки хит-парадов. Две последовавших долгоиграющих пластинки стали одними из лучших рок-альбомов начала 60-х годов. На некоторое время карьера братьев была прервана их службой в армии. Затем они полгода проучились на актеров, но им так и не суждено было сыграть в каких-нибудь фильмах. В 1962 году Дон, увлекшийся наркотиками чуть не умер от передозировки, но к счастью его удалось откачать. К тому времени звезда "Everly brothers" начала потихоньку закатываться, и их сингл "That's Old Fashioned" последний раз оказался в горячей десятке.
Альбомы того времени стали какими-то беспорядочными и небрежными, хотя Эверли продолжали писать довольно-таки приятные вещи, попадавшие в чарты. Популярность дуэта в Америке значительно упала, однако по другую сторону Атлантики их творчество продолжало пользоваться спросом.
Несмотря на то что пластинки редко попадали в чарты, публика всегда воспринимала "Everly brothers" с энтузиазмом, и гастроли проходили с большим успехом. К началу 70-х годов братья все-таки основательно поднадоели друг другу и это сказывалось на качестве альбомов. В 1973-м Дон и Фил решили прекратить совместную деятельность и заняться сольной карьерой. Оба занялись в основном кантри-музыкой, причем вполне успешно. Собрав за десять лет кучу лавров на поприще кантри, братья вновь воссоединились и закатили два грандиозных концерта в лондонском "Albert Hall". За воссоединением последовал выпуск новых альбомов, подтвердивших отличную репутацию "Everly brothers". В 1986 году братья Эверли были введены в Зал Славы Рок'н'ролла.
Этот славный дуэт и дальше продолжил свою деятельность, за что в 1997 получил "Lifetime Achievement Award", составив компанию Бобу Дилану, Стиви Уандеру, Полу Маккартни, " Rolling stones" и другим героям Рок'н'ролла.
