Pat Benatar

More than three decades ago, Pat Benatar began breaking rules and blazed a new trial for female rock stars.  Songs such as “Love Is a Battlefield,” “Hit Me With Your Best Shot,” “We Live For Love,” and “Heartbreaker” became anthems for a new attitude.  At the dawn of MTV, Benatar was the image of the female rocker for an entire generation of young woman, and the young men who loved them. That generation has grown up with her and others have walked down the path she helped pave.

 

Still going strong, Benatar has been married for 28 years to guitarist, songwriter producer, collaborator and soul mate Neil Giraldo. The parents of two daughters, Pat and Neil have been touring almost non-stop for over three decades.


Benatar is acknowledged as the leading female rock vocalist of the ‘80s.  During this time she was nominated nine times for Grammy Awards for Best Rock Vocal Performance (female), winning an unprecedented four Grammy Awards in consecutive years from 1980 to 1983.  BENATAR has also won three American Music Awards.  Of the sixteen original and compilation albums released during her 30+ year career, seven were certified platinum and three were certified gold.  One of the most popular performers in rock, she is also one of the most recognized and admired female artists.

 

Joining Pat Benatar on tour is one of the most successful all-female bands of all time The Bangles, well known for hits such as "Manic Monday", “Different Light”, Walk Like an Egyptian” and “Eternal Flame”.
