Goldie biography

There are 3 artists who have recorded as Goldie: 1. Goldie is a UK drum & bass/jungle producer. 2. Goldie is a 1970s British pop/rock band. 3. Goldie, a.k.a. Goldie Zelkowitz was the stage name of Genya Zelkowitz (later Genya Ravan) of Goldie & The Gingerbreads. 3. In 1962 Genya Zelkowitz, a.k.a. Goldie Zelkowitz (who would eventually change her last name to Genya Ravan -as she became better known as the lead singer of the band Ten Wheel Drive beginning in 1969) - first as the lead-singer of Richard Perry's band The Escorts- met Ginger Panabianco in a New York club. Ginger was on stage, performing as the drummer for one of Perry's friends. The discovery of a female drummer inspired in Genya Ravan the idea of an all-female rock band. The name of the would-be band Goldie & The Gingerbreads was decided upon rapidly: Goldie was the name by which Ravan's mother chose to call her after their arrival in the United States from post-war Poland, while gingerbread was a play on Ginger's name. In 1969 Genya Ravan went on to form Ten Wheel Drive.
