Music

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.
