The Manhattans, Chicago, TSOP, Hiroshima, Asia, Oak Ridge Boys. Any others?

Besides the ones I’ve already listed to get the ball rolling, what are some other pop music acts, individual singers, groups, bands, etc that include an officially recognized geographic place in their names? Using the examples above as guidance, that means towns, cities, counties, states, provinces, countries, territories, islands, continents, and so on.

  EDITED SPECIFICALLY IN RESPONSE TO ARGUMENT ABOUT WHAT IS OR IS NOT DISQUALIFYING ENTRY: No businesses, organizations, units, or industries, streets, avenues, roads, highways, expressways, addresses, symphonies, symphony orchestras, and philharmonics, nicknames, or surnames.

 You may use any language, but if it is other than English, please identify both the language and the English translation for the word(s) you submit.

(I thought of about 22 of them so far, and I know that there are many, many more possibilities.)
