ANTHRAX Guitarist Performs With Wife On KQRC 98.9 THE ROCK

April 20, 2010

Pearl Aday — ANTHRAX guitarist Scott Ian's wife and daughter of legendary crooner Meat Loaf — took part in an interview and performed an acoustic version of the song "Mama" at the studios of the Kansas City, Missouri radio station KQRC 98.9 The Rock. Watch video footage of her appearance below.

Pearl Aday was featured on the January 20, 2010 edition of ABC-TV's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" show. The performance was the singer debut national television appearance, featuring a powerful band that includes Ian, Marcus Blake on bass, Nalle Colt on guitar and Eric Andrews on drums.

"Mama" and "Whore" come off Aday's debut U.S. collection, "Little Immaculate White Fox", which was released on January 19 via Megaforce Records.

With a rock lineage that declares her "to the manor born," Pearl has created a collection of songs that takes you on a rock and roll journey. She was named after the infamous Janis Joplin and is the god daughter to Maria Muldaur. In addition, she has toured as a back-up singer with MÖTLEY CRÜE and she and her band have opened for VELVET REVOLVER.

In a synchronistic tale told to her startled pregnant mom before she was born, a psychic said, "Your daughter will sing and will resemble a Little Immaculate White Fox." Pearl, all grown now with a mane of platinum curls, a long, lithe figure and innocent look on her face with the slyness and intelligence of a fox, has been injected with the passion for rock and roll and is cutting a path across the music world.

Her new CD, with the help of Ian, is a cross between raw rock and roll and a sweetness that comes from Pearl's soul. The band has created a sound that combines influences from all genres of rock: from blues to heavy metal. Pearl says , "I just want to bring it all back to the real rock and roll, the soul, the emotion. I strip it all down and it comes from a raw and naked place inside me."

Other friends appear on the CD, including Jerry Cantrell (ALICE IN CHAINS) and Ted Nugent. The album was produced by Joe Barresi (TOOL, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, BAD RELIGION) and features original songs with the exception of a soulful and rocking cover of TINA TURNER's "Nutbush City Limits", produced by PEARL (the band) and mixed by Warren Riker. In addition, the newest original track, "Broken White", was produced and mixed by Jay Ruston (THE DONNAS, STEEL PANTHER).
