Hertfordshire, England (1969 – 1976, 2010 – present)

Argent is an English rock band founded in 1969 by Rod Argent after his previous band, The Zombies, broke up.

The other original members (most come from Hertfordshire, England) were drummer Robert Henrit and bassist Jim Rodford (later members of The Kinks) and guitarist/keyboardist Russ Ballard, who contributed to several compositions through the group’s career (curiously some of Ballard’s compositions became hits when they were covered by other bands, like Rainbow or Santana). When Russ Ballard left in 1973, his place was taken by guitarist and vocalist John Verity and guitarist John Grimaldi and there followed a period of intense recording and touring until the band decided to come off the road late in 1976.

The original Argent lineup reunited at the High Voltage Festival in Victoria Park London on July 25, 2010. According to the Classic Rock website, Argent will embark on a full tour in the near future.
