MARILYN MANSON's DAISY BERKOWITZ Joins Forces With KILL MISS PRETTY
March 23, 2010MARILYN MANSON co-founder and original guitarist Scott Putesky, a.k.a. Daisy Berkowitz, has teamed up with Florida's electro-punk darlings KILL MISS PRETTY to write and record a new album for release this summer. The new CD will include their recently released single collaboration "Judy Garland", as well as new KMP tunes and a remake of the early MARILYN MANSON & SPOOKY KIDS classic "She's not My Girlfriend".
The union seems a match made in heaven/hell as KILL MISS PRETTY has been attracting attention from the press not only for its songwriting, but theatrical performances as well.
KMP has in the last year garnered awards for "Best Female Vocalist" and "Best Rock Band" in local publications, and now with the addition of Scott Putesky, their continued rise seems inevitable.
On February 20 in Ft. Lauderdale, for the single release party for "Judy Garland", Scott Putesky joined KILL MISS PRETTY onstage for three songs, including "Judy Garland", MANSON's "Dogma", and a freaked out version of NIRVANA's "Negative Creep". This proved the impetus as KILL MISS PRETTY and Putesky began rehearsing and writing immediately thereafter.
The first full show featuring the KILL MISS PRETTY lineup with Putesky will take place April 23 at Will's Pub in Orlando, Florida, and will be the live premier of the "She's Not My Girlfriend" remake. Opening the show will be rock veterans ROCK CITY ANGELS, and VASCULAR SYMPHONY.
Says Putesky, "This is the kind of thing early MANSON/SPOOKY KIDS fans can really enjoy. KMP have established themselves as a fresh musical voice and visual delight very much in the spirit of the SPOOKY KIDS.
"I'm happy to be having fun and working with creative, open, and like-minded performers. Russ, Alicia and Martin and I go way back — like 8 tracks. Plus they're freaks in their own right."
