Lydia Lunch, born on 2 June 1959 in Rochester, New York, USA, is a renowned artist who emerged as a prominent figure in the No Wave Movement of the late 1970s. As the lead singer and guitar player for *Teenage Jesus And The Jerks*, she made her mark on the music scene with their unique sound. Alongside her musical endeavors, Lydia has also ventured into acting and gained recognition for her roles in experimental movies by Richard Kern and Beth B & Scott B.

In addition to her contributions to music and film, Lydia Lunch is known for captivating audiences with her powerful spoken word performances. She continues to produce music and collaborate on various projects, including her latest venture *Lydia Lunch Retrovirus*. Despite being involved in multiple artistic pursuits, Lydia remains dedicated to her solo career.

Beyond performing, Lydia Lunch is an accomplished writer who has edited books of poetry and fiction. Notable works include "Adulterers Anonymous," a collaboration with X's Exene Cervenka, and the novel "Paradoxia: A Predator's Diary." Her creative output spans across different mediums, showcasing her versatility as an artist.

New Wave / Post Punk

High priestess of macabre rock and assaultive poetics with impeccable taste in collaborators, Lydia Lunch first joined forces with guitarist and songwriter Rowland S. Howard in the early '80s in Europe. The duo improvised clamorous live séances as an opening act before Howard's sets with the revered Australian post-punk act The Birthday Party. The fortuitous meeting spawned 1982's Some Velvet Morning EP, and Howard guested on Lunch's excellent 1987 album, Honeymoon in Red, but the pair's next true collaboration took until 1991, when they travelled to Memphis to create Shotgun Wedding with producer JG Thirlwell (Foetus, Coil).
