Bio / info

Argent was an English band formed in 1969 by keyboardist Rod Argent after the Zombies split up. He joined forces with Russ Ballard (guitar, vocals), Jim Rodford (bass), and Bob Henrit (drums). Argent and Ballard were the primary writers, and over the course of seven studio releases, they scored a number of hit singles, including "Hold You Head Up" and "God Gave Rock and Roll to You." The group disbanded in 1976, with members going on to other projects, though various combinations have reunited for festivals and brief tours.
