Gitane Demone is multi-faceted artist, singer, painter, songwriter, poet, and keyboardist. She is one of the pioneers of Deathrock/Goth/Punk culture in the USA.
She 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 seminal band Christian Death, where Demone remained before relocating to Amsterdam and mounting a solo career in 1989, releasing multiple studio albums. In 2013 she formed the Gitane Demone Quartet with partner and former Christian Death bandmate, Rikk Agnew, Paul Roessler (ex-Screamers), & Deb Venom.
