As a songwriter, he has written #1 hits for Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross and Olivia Newton-John, among others.

Gibb plans to further his songwriting success by continuing to write songs for major feature films.

The band formed in 1960 with Barry and Robin alternating on lead vocals, while harmonizing with Maurice. Upon the release of their album Bee Gee’s 1st in 1967, the group achieved international success.

Gibb and his brothers were commissioned to write and record the songs for the soundtrack to the film Saturday Night Fever.
