THE DISTILLERS BIO

Guitarist/vocalist Brody Dalle (Melbourne, Australia) paid her dues on the local punk rock circuit with an obscure band, Sourpuss, before relocating to America in 1998. Shortly after arriving, she found a kindred spirit in Detroit, Michigan-based guitarist Rose Casper. Soon thereafter, the other pieces to the Distillers puzzle neatly fell into place, as Kim "Chi" Fuelleman (bass) and Matt Young (drums) signed on. A recording contract with the Epitaph Records imprint Hellcat followed shortly thereafter (a label run by Rancid's Tim Armstrong, who later married Dalle), resulting in the release of the band's debut album in 2000. Despite the disc becoming a favourite among punk revivalists, the entire Distillers line-up then split-up, with two previous members (Fuelleman and Young) signing on with former X singer Exene Cervenka's new band, the Original Sinners.

New members Ryan Sinn (bass) and Andy Outbreak (drums) joined Brody Armstrong and Casper for the recording of the Distillers' second album Sing Sing Death House, unfortunately Casper left the band before the album was released in 2002, despite her departure The Distillers continued on without her as a 3 piece eventually recruiting Tony (ex roadie) to play guitar with Brody. With Brody's marriage to Tim Armstrong falling apart, the band parted company with Hellcat and signed a new recording contract with Sire Records. The excellent Coral Fang was released in October 2003. The Distillers still continue their assault on the world.
