With all of his accomplishments as an actor, best-selling author and documentary subject, Rick Springfield s first love has always been music, a passion he s harbored since first picking up the guitar at the age of 12 in his native Australia.

During Rick Springfield s 40+ year career, the artist has amassed 17 Top 40 hits, including four Top 10 s as well as achieving an iconic cultural moment with the Number One hit Jessie s Girl, for which he won a 1981 Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance. And after 25 million records sold, Springfield shows no signs of slowing down. I put everything I've got into making records, he says. Sometimes people may think they have you pegged but I trust the music to speak for itself.
