William Lee Golden Reveals Secrets ‘Behind The Beard’ In New Autobiography

/by

William Lee Golden, member of the Grammy Award-winning band The Oak Ridge Boys, has announced the release of his new autobiography, Behind The Beard, penned with Scot England.

“When you write your life story, and you decide to bare everything, it’s kind of scary. It feels a lot like getting naked… in front of the entire world. Now that I’ve committed to it, there is one thing going through my mind… if I was going to get naked in front of everyone, I probably shouldn’t have waited until I was 82 years old,” shares Golden.

The memoir takes readers on a journey from Golden’s childhood and teenage roots to singing on stage with the Oaks, as well as all of the shocking details in between. Behind the Beard not only takes readers through 50 years with The Oak Ridge Boys, but also dives deeper into personal hardships Golden faced throughout his life, including the reasons he left the group for nine years and how he made his return to the Oaks.

“William Lee Golden is a lot of different things to a lot of different people. But he is a person who knows who he is. He has dedicated his life to helping people. William is a man of integrity and honesty, and you will read his very honest words in this book,” adds Jim Halsey, manager of The Oak Ridge Boys.

The new book can be ordered at williamleegoldenbook.com or at Amazon.com.

Along with the launch of his autobiography, Golden is involved in several other upcoming projects, including the release of The Oak Ridge Boys’ new album Front Porch Singin’ on June 11, and working with his sons, The Goldens, on three new rock, country, and gospel albums.
