Grammy Award winning artist Rick Springfield will perform this summer at the Mountain America Center in Idaho Falls.

Springfield is known for songs including “Don’t Talk to Strangers,” “An Affair of the Heart,” “I’ve Done Everything for You,” “Human Touch” and “Jessie’s Girl.” He’s sold more than 25 million albums worldwide and released 17 Top 40 hits in the United States.

The Australian musician’s latest album, “Automatic,” was released in 2023, the 22nd studio album from Springfield.

Springfield will bring his celebrated catalog and unmistakable live energy to the Mountain America Center at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 26. The multi‑platinum artist returns to the stage with a show built for longtime fans and new listeners alike.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday at Ticketmaster.com or in person at the venue’s Bingham Healthcare Box Office during open hours.

Over the past four decades, Springfield has worn many hats as an entertainer and performer.

The creator of some of the finest power-pop of the 1980s is also an accomplished actor, appearing opposite Meryl Streep in the feature film “Ricki and the Flash,” portraying Dr. Irving Pitlor in HBO’s “True Detective,” earning praise for his role as Lucifer on the CW’s “Supernatural,” and most recently playing Pastor Charles on FX’s hit series “American Horror Story.”

As an author, he received critical acclaim for both his candid 2010 memoir “Late, Late at Night,” which Rolling Stone named one of the 25 greatest rock memoirs of all time, and his 2014 comedic novel “Magnificent Vibration,” both of which landed on The New York Times Best Sellers list.

In 2014, Springfield was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, located around the corner from the first apartment he lived in when he first arrived in the U.S. from Australia in 1971.
