New York-born Rhonda Heath had her showbiz breakthrough at a young age when she was chosen by producers Sylvester Levay & Michael Kunze to replace Linda G. Thompson for Silver Convention. She came to Germany in 1976 to record the group's Madhouse album, representing Germany in the Eurovision Song Contest 1977 and doing a world tour with Silver Convention 1977/78 before the group ultimately split early 1979. Kunze signed Rhonda for two singles on his Karma label (these can be found here https://youtu.be/c6KPlneELhQ), but by the turn of the decade music styles were changing and disco music no longer in fashion. Rhonda decided she needed a new style and started working with Günther Moll (one of Giorgio Moroder's musicians) for an album on Global Records and Tapes. It's Rock'n Roll, That's All was a rock album but did not achieve the success the pair were hoping for. For the follow-up album, Neonlight Love Affairs, they chose a more commercial approach with the singles 365 Nights and Pac-Man, but it was another unsuccessful venture. She spent the rest of the 80s as a session singer and was a featured vocalist on two tracks on the Seefelder-album 1987. She got married and had her son in 1990. She also backed Gary Lux (Austria, 1985) and Mekado (Germany, 1994) in the Eurovision Song Contest. These days Rhonda still resides in Munich and works as a vocal coach and also plays the violin. Her last recordings from 2009 with Peter Musser, also included here, show she is still in excellent shape vocally.
