Gossip Band

Categories: Entertainment | Music | Rock | Indie
  • Gossip is a three-piece indie rock band fronted by singer Beth Ditto. The band was formed in 1999 in Searcy, Arkansas. The trio relocated to Olympia, Washington that same year to join the roster at independent label K Records and release their eponymous EP. Since that time, the band has released three full-length studio albums.

    In April 2009, Gossip released their first new single in two years, entitled Heavy Cross. Their new album, Music for Men, is scheduled for release on June 22, 2009.

  • Background

    Now based in Portland, Oregon, Gossip has attracted attention for their high energy performances and the outspoken Ditto, who has never held back on the subjects of sexuality, body image and feminism. The group's hit single "Standing in the Way of Control" was written as a response to the Bush administration's decision to deny gay people the right to marry.

    The band toured in 2007 with the Logo channel's True Colors Tour, which raised money for the Human Rights Campaign, the largest lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender lobbying group in the United States.
