William Lee Golden is a shining example of a life well lived. A true American original. Since joining the Oak Ridge Boys in 1965, he has become a member of the legendary Grand Ole Opry, inducted into both the Country and Gospel Music Halls of Fame, won 5 Grammy Awards (+ 23 nominations), 1 American Music Award, 4 Country Music Association (CMA) Awards, 4 Academy of Country Music (ACM) Awards, the 2008 ACM Pioneer Award, 10 Dove Awards and the 2010 President’s Honor. In addition to those accolades as an Oak Ridge Boy, Golden has also recorded and released such critically acclaimed solo projects as 1986’s American Vagabond and 2000’s My Life’s Work. He has received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Alabama Music Hall of Fame and has received the Entertainer of the Year Award from the Cherokee Indian Association, which is composed of 21 tribes from across America.
Never one to sit still, Golden gathered his sons Rusty, Chris, and Craig in the studio, along with his grandchildren Elizabeth, Rebekah and Elijah and friend Aaron McCune to record a 3 album collection. The result of those marathon sessions became Country Roads: Vintage Country Classics, Old Country Church Gospel (featuring their first #1 with the single "Come And Dine”) and Southern Accents: Pop & Country Rock. Rusty and Chris have performed together as The Goldens since the 1980’s (Epic Records, Capitol/SBK Records) and have had award winning solo careers in their own right.
