Terri Nunn is the singer of L.A.’s synth electro-pop band Berlin, which celebrates its 40th anniversary this year. The platinum-selling band topped the charts with hits such as “The Metro” and “No More Words” before releasing love song “Take My Breath Away” in 1986.

The #1 international hit received both the Golden Globe and Academy Award for “Best Original Song.” Nunn’s ongoing influence earned her the #11 spot on VH1’s “100 Greatest Women in Rock.” She’s currently recording a new BERLIN album scheduled for release in early 2019.
