They sold more than 20 million albums. They filled arenas. They performed thousands of concerts over the course of the last few decades. And they appeared in a GEICO commercial. Ratt, a pioneer of the early ’80s Sunset Strip rock scene, can officially say they’ve done it all, and founder, songwriter and lead singer Stephen Pearcy is just getting started.
Ratt jumped to instant fame with 1984 album Out of the Cellar, which also spawned the songs that defined both the band and Pearcy: “Wanted Man,” “Round and Round,” “Back for More” and “Lack of Communication.” Four of the band’s eight albums have gone platinum, and it’s a good bet that Pearcy will be drawing from the early hits while mixing in some of his solo material. But one thing is certain: It will absolutely rock.
