Биография "Le Butcherettes"
<< Вернуться к списку всех песен "Le Butcherettes"
First known as a girl band, Le Butcherettes was created by vocalist/guitarist Teri Gender Bender who later recruited drummer Auryn Jolene to complete the duo. Quick acclaim was achieved in the Mexican underground scene for their live act which included both of them dressed in a 50’s women fashion referring to women being slaves in home chores, using brooms, feather dusters and bloody aprons. Teri Gender Bender would also use artificial blood, flour, eggs, meat and a real pig head all over the stage, interacting with the public most of the time.
The quick recognition of the band led them to win the award for «Best New Artist» and «Best Punk Record» in the Indie-O Awards 2009. A difference on the band’s direction led Auryn Jolene to abruptly leave the band claiming the end of it leading to media confusion. Teri Gender Bender later denied this. She moved the band to Los Angeles recruiting Gabe Serbian of The Locust as her official drummer. Le Butcherettes played in a number of events, notably Hellow Fest 2009 in Monterrey and being asked to be the opening act for The Dead Weather in their Mexico City and Guadalajara shows. French singer and composer Adan Jodorowsky joined Le Butcherettes on stage.
Omar Rodríguez-López of The Mars Volta produced (as well as contributed bass guitar to) Le Butcherettes’ first LP Sin Sin Sin. The album is to be released in 2011 on Omar’s label Rodriguez-Lopez Productions. «Henry Don’t Got Love», the first single from the upcoming album, was released in 2010 as a free download from Le Butcherettes’ Bandcamp page. They will begin touring the U.S. with Deftones this summer.
