Golden Earring Biography

Golden Earring are a Dutch rock band, founded in 1961 in The Hague as the Golden Earrings (the 's' was dropped in 1969). They had international chart success with the songs "Radar Love" in 1973, "Twilight Zone" in 1982, and "When the Lady Smiles" in 1984. In their home country, they had over 40 hits and made over 30 gold and platinum albums. Current members of Golden Earring are Barry Hay (vocals, guitar, flute and saxophone, member since 1968), George Kooymans (vocals and guitar, founder of band), Rinus Gerritsen (bass and keyboard, founding member), and Cesar Zuiderwijk (drums and percussion, member since 1970). Golden Earring have sold millions of albums worldwide, and they are one of the longest existing rock bands in the world that are currently performing in the same line up. Golden Earring had been planning of recording an album at the famous Abbey Road Studios in London in the summer of 2011. But due to voice problems of co-singer George Kooymans the recording was delayed and they couldn't record it any more in Abbey Road because it was fully booked the time they finally could go on recording and so they had to go to another recording studio instead. In October 2011, a postage stamp was issued by TNT Post to commemorate the band's 50th anniversary, even though they like to think of 2015 as their 50th anniversary, because they had their very first single in 1965, and so regard this as the real start of the band.
