Bitch
is an electric violin, bass, & ukulele playing musician, writer, &
actress . She has toured internationally with her former band, Bitch &
Animal& has released four albums- two on Ani Difranco’s Righteous
Babe Records.
It’s obvious when you see her live, Bitch is a stage veteran. Since
graduating with a BFA in Acting from the former Goodman School of Drama
(DePaul) in Chicago, she has not gone back to her much loved craft until
recently. She has just worked with John Cameron Mitchell on a three year
project that will culminate in a feature length film, Shortbus,
appearing as herself. Also in their work together, many people have recognized
her in the much talked about video for Bright Eyes called First Day
of my Life.
Since leaving her prolific former band, Bitch has just completed her first
ever solo studio album, Make this/Break this, which is produced
by June Millington (from the 70s all girl band, Fanny), & mixed by
three time Grammy nominee, Roma Baran (Laurie Anderson, McGarrigle Sisters).
In anticipation of the record’s release, she just completed a tour
with Amy Ray (Indigo Girls) where she toured under her other moniker,
Capital b. Her songs from this record will also appear on this season’s
The L Word.
