Rhonda Heath
- Actress
Singer Rhonda Heath was born in New York City. Heath met German music
producers and songwriters Sylvester Levay and Michael Kunze in the
summer of 1976; she replaced singer Linda Thompson as a member of the
hugely successful disco trio Silver Convention. Rhonda not only
performed the charming number "Telegram" with the rest of the group at
the 1977 Eurovision Song Contest, but also sang vocals on the albums
"Madhouse" and "Love in a Sleeper." Moreover, she also sang vocals on
Silver Convention's final single "Cafe Au Lait" in 1979. Heath released
her debut solo single "It Hurts So Good" that same year. She recorded
the follow-up single "Get Up and Rock" in 1980. Rhonda released her
first album "It's Rock'n Roll, That's All" in 1981. Her second album
"Neonlight Love Affairs" came out in 1983. Alas, both albums as well as
the singles "365 Nights" and "Pac-Man" proved to be commercial flops.
In 1985 Heath joined the German rock/disco group La Mama. Rhonda has
performed at the Eurovision Song Contest on two additional occasions:
She was a backing singer for both Gary Lux in 1985 and Mekado in 1994.
