Autograph was an American Hard Rock Band led by lead singer Steve Plunkett.
The group was first formed in Los Angeles in 1983.
They are best known for their One-Hit Wonder, the 1984 song “Turn up the Radio” which peaked at #29 on the Billboard Top-40 Charts.
That single, and one other single, “Blondes in Black Cars” charted in the top-40 of the Billboard Rock Charts, and that was all the chart success that the band would enjoy.
The band was active from 1983-1989, and from 2002-2005, but is now inactive.
They ended up recording 6 Studio Albums over the course of their career.
Vh-1 named “Turn up the Radio” as the 93rd Best Hard Rock Song of All-Time.
The song was featured in an episode of “Miami Vice“, and is also featured on the “Grand Theft Auto: Vice City” video game.
