Gitane Demone
Gitane DeMone (born May 16, 1958) 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 "torch songs" sound over the course of a few EPs, including A Heavenly Melancholy and Lullabies For A Troubled World. In 1995, Dream Home Heartache reunited Gitane DeMone and Rozz Williams after almost a decade of separation. 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 torch song album, Am I Wrong?, followed in 1998 and the alt-rock Stars of Trash in 2000. Gitane has also bee a part of the experimental/noise band +DOG+.
Gitane DeMone, now living in Los Angeles and playing live from time to time, is working on her long waited new album. Meanwhile you can catch her here, making great music with her daughter Zara as The Crystelles. Her son, Sevan Kand, has also been in the dark psychedelic band The Sixth Chamber. Both of her children are with current Christian Death frontman and ex-lover Valor Kand. Gitane's stage name is French for "Gypsy Demon".
