Cyndi Lauper is a singer, songwriter, and actress from the United States of America. She was first singing covers with several bands before founding “Blue Angel,” and then going on a successful solo career.
Career
Cyndi Lauper got her first acoustic guitar from her sister when she was 12 years old when she started playing it and writing songs. She began singing covers with cover bands in the 1970s and later realized that she has to do more than cover singing. Around 1980, Cyndi Lauper co-founds along with John Turi calling it “Blue Angel,” and they released only a self-titled album because the band members later got into a problem with their manager Steven Massarsky and broke up.
Personal Life
Cyndi Lauper had a relationship with her manager David Wolff before in the 1980s.
