The Runaways

The Runaways  were an American all-female rock band that recorded and performed in the second half of the 1970’s.  The band released four studio albums and one live set during its run.  Among their best-known songs are “Cherry Bomb”, “Hollywood”, “Queens of Noise”, and a cover version of the Velvet Underground’s “Rock & Roll”.  The Runaways, though never a major success in the United States, became a sensation overseas, e.g. in Japan, thanks to the hit single “Cherry Bomb”.   (More from Wikipedia)
