The Bee Gees

The Bee Gees were formed in 1958 by three brothers Maurice, Barry and Robin Gibbs. Their genres are rock, pop, soft rock, disco and some soul. They have been active except for a six year hiatus. As singers-songwriters, the brothers wrote all their own hits, as well as writing and producing other hits for different artists. They have sold over 220 million records. Only five other artist/groups have sold more, and their awards are as impressive as the groups popularity. All questions about this group can be found here.

How did the bee gees come together?

The still very young brothers began performing where they could to raise pocket money. First called the Rattlesnakes, later Wee Johnny Hayes & the Bluecats, they were introduced to radio DJ Bill Gates by racetrack promoter Bill Goode (who saw them perform at Brisbane's Speedway Circuit). Gates renamed them the "Bee Gees" after his and Goode's initials - thus the name was not specifically a reference to "Brothers Gibb", despite popular belief.
