Cherie Currie Discography

Update Information

Cherie Currie rose to major rock stardom as the teenage lead vocalist for the now legendary all female rock band, "The Runaways", which also included Joan Jett, Lita Ford, Sandy West & Jackie Fox. After three albums with "The Runaways", {The Runaways, Queens of Noise, and Live In Japan}, Cherie left the group to pursue her solo recording and acting interests. She starred in numerous films including Foxes (1980) with Jodie Foster, Parasite (1982) with Demi Moore, Wavelength (1983) with Robert Carradine, and guest-starred on such major prime time hit shows as "Murder, She Wrote" (1984) and "Matlock" (1986). Cherie is the co-author of "Neon Angel: The Cherie Currie Story". The book chronicles her painful descent into drug addiction which eventually ruined her very promising acting career. Today, Cherie continues to perform in the entertainment industry on a part-time basis and, these days, it`s for the fans and on her own terms. One of the highlights of her adventures has been working as a drug counselor, something she knows all too well about. Recently, she added the role of record producer to her impressive resume, and opened her own Chainsaw Art Gallery in Chatsworth, California. One of the blazing images of the 1970s even though they never experienced major American success, "The Runaways" have influenced the likes of Courtney Love and The Donnas and paved the way for The Go-Gos and The Bangles.
