Betsy Bitch is America’s whip-cracking pioneer for women
in heavy rock music. She is best known as the lady frontman of the Los Angeles-based heavy metal band Bitch. Betsy
also currently fronts veteran Sunset Strip metal band Witch, and
used to front the second-wave ska band The Boxboys.
Bitch
has the distinction of being the first woman-fronted American metal band
to ever be signed to a label, as well as the first band to release an album on
the legendary Metal Blade Records. Bitch would keep a steady profile throughout the eighties in the face of
consistent disdain for woman-fronted heavy bands, proving that women can rock
just as hard as their male counterparts.
The
website is an information resource on Bitch and their pioneering singer, the
fabulous Betsy Bitch. The
centerpiece of this website will be information on a NEW
BITCH ALBUM which will feature an all-star lineup with veterans of
other famous bands. We will report
on the album’s progress and eventual release as information becomes available.
This site also features an extremely detailed Bitch Discography that chronicles every album and compilation that Bitch has ever appeared on, as well as a listing of Bitch member appearances on other albums outside of Bitch. Eventually we will publish a full Bitch Biography that will take you through the band’s story; for now we have a sample of what's to come.
In the near future, we hope
to include more information on The Boxboys, and
plan to feature recommendations on other lady-fronted metal bands to
check into. In the meantime, enjoy
the information we have here and know that there is more to come.
