Who was the lead singer of the 1980s American band "The Go-Go's"?

The Go-Go's are an American rock band formed in Los Angeles, California, in 1978. The band's lineup consisted of Charlotte Caffey lead guitar and keyboards, Belinda Carlisle lead vocals, Gina Schock, drums, Kathy Valentine, bass guitar, and Jane Wiedlin, rhythm guitar.

Belinda Jo Carlisle ,born August 17, 1958 is an American musician, singer, and author. She gained fame as the lead singer of the Go-Go's, one of the most successful all-female bands of all time, and went on to have a prolific career as a solo artist.

Raised in Southern California, Carlisle became the lead singer of the Go-Go's after the band's formation in 1978. With their chart-topping debut release "Beauty and the Beat" in 1981, the group helped popularize new wave music in the United States. The Go-Go's were the first (and to date only) all-female band in history who wrote their own songs and played their own instruments to achieve a No. 1 album. The Go-Go's have sold over seven million records worldwide.

After the dissolution of the Go-Go's in 1985, Carlisle went on to have a successful solo career with radio hits such as "Mad About You", "I Get Weak", "Circle in the Sand", "Leave a Light On", and "Heaven Is a Place on Earth". The Go-Go's reformed in 1999, and Carlisle continues to perform with them regularly while also maintaining her solo career. The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2021.
