Go-Go's


The Go-Go’s : American all-female rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1978. Except for short periods when other musicians joined briefly, the band has had a relatively stable lineup consisting of Charlotte Caffey on lead guitar and keyboards, Belinda Carlisle on lead vocals, Gina Schock on drums, Kathy Valentine on bass, and Jane Wiedlin on rhythm guitar. They are widely considered the most successful all-female rock band of all time.

The Go-Go’s signed to I.R.S. Records in April 1981. The following year, they toured with The Police on the Ghost in the Machine Tour. Their debut album, Beauty and the Beat, was a surprise hit: it topped the U.S. charts for six weeks in 1982 and eventually received a double platinum certification.






Beauty and the Beat is the debut album by the Go-Go's. It was released on July 14, 1981, by the I.R.S. Records label. 
Bolstered by its two Hot 100 hit singles "Our Lips Are Sealed" and "We Got the Beat", Beauty and the Beat reached number one on the Billboard Top LPs & Tape chart in March 1982, and eventually ranked second on Billboard's 1982 year-end albums chart.
