**On Sale Now**
There’s something about Rick Springfield that is and always has been very real. His songs about love and loss, greed and envy, elation and heartbreak speak to that part of the human nature that hasn’t changed in 3,000 years. His most recent studio release, Venus in Overdrive, (New Door Record/UMe) was released on July 29th, 2008, to high acclaim. A creative collaboration between Rick and his longtime bass player, Matt Bissonette, Venus in Overdrive is simultaneously classic and current – and definitely the music fans have loved since Rick’s distinctive canine companion, Lethal Ron, first graced the cover of his classic album, Working Class Dog. To date, Rick Springfield has sold over 19 million records with a whopping 17 top-40 hits. He has performed for millions of devoted fans over thee last three decades and continues to play over 100 shows a year. Springfield recorded what would become the quintessential pop/rock album Working Class Dog, skyrocketing to the top of Billboard’s charts with “Jessie’s Girl” and “I’ve Done Everything For You”. The following year, he won a Grammy for “Best Male Rock Vocal Performance”. In May of 2009, Rick headed in a different direction by releasing a special album, My Precious Little One, (Gomer Records/DKE Records). This album is the collection of lullabies Rick created or his own family.
