BZN started out as a pop-rock band in their native Volendam in the sixties playing from early BeeGees-like harmony pop to Status Quo-like rock in the early seventies. BZN achieved a thirty-year music chart presence in the Netherlands, with over 50 hits in the Dutch hit charts to date, started with the song “Mon Amour” (1976), and they are the only music act to have had top 40 hit singles for 26 consecutive years (1973-1998) and an even stronger album presence from 1977 to 2008 without interruption! BZN is the most popular Dutch band ever (in terms of hit singles and albums). Outside of the Netherlands the band has had success in Germany, South Africa, and Canada.
