Greg Kihn was one of the great power pop heroes of the 1980s, playing punchy and melodic rock & roll with enough edge for new wave fans and tuneful enough to appeal to mainstream listeners, scoring major hit singles with "The Breakup Song (They Don't Write 'Em)" in 1981 and "Jeopardy" in 1983. Coming out of the Northern California rock & roll scene that formed around Beserkley Records, he issued his self-titled debut in 1976, and by 1979, his fans included Bruce Springsteen, who gave him the unreleased "Rendezvous" to cover on 1979's With the Naked Eye. 1981's Rockihnroll and 1983's Kihnspiracy represented his commercial peak (and showed off his love of punning album titles), but even after he turned to other pursuits, 2017's Rekihndled showed he never lost his rock & roll heart.
Greg Kihn has also released music as a member of Greg Kihn Band.
