Gitane DeMone

Gitane Demone is commonly recognized as a former member of Christian Death, but also known for her solo albums and her S/M imagery and shows.

Demone began her career on the Southern California new wave scene of the early 80s as a member of the trio Pompeii 99. The group later joined with singer Rozz Williams to make up a new incarnation of his band Christian Death, where Demone remained before relocating to Amsterdam and mounting a solo career in 1989, adopting an increasingly torchy sound over the course of EPs including "A Heavenly Melancholy" and "Lullabies For A Troubled World". In 1995, "Dream Home Heartache" re-united Gitane DeMone and Rozz Williams after almost a decade of seperation. The duet toured extensively in Europe and North America, in support of this CD. Demone next collaborated with Mark Ickx under the banner of Demonix, issuing "Never Felt So Alive"; the solo Am I Wrong? followed in 1998.

Gitane Demone, now living in Los Angeles and playing live from time to time, is working on her long waited new album.
