Concrete Blonde Biography

Biography of Concrete Blonde. Detailed Concrete Blonde profile and review.

Concrete Blonde is an alternative rock band dating from the late 1980s to the early 1990s (which re-formed again in the 2000's). They are most known for the poignant songwriting and vocals of Johnette Napolitano. Their most popular album was the 1990 Bloodletting; after a number of less successful albums, Napolitano decided to break up the band in 1993. After an eight-year hiatus, the band was ready to get back together, and released Group Therapy in 2002.

Singer / songwriter / bassist Napolitano formed the band Dream 6 with guitarist James Mankey in Los Angeles in the early 1980's. When they signed with I.R.S. Records in 1987, labelmate Michael Stipe suggested the name Concrete Blonde, describing the contrast between their hard rock music and introspective lyrics. They were joined by drummer Harry Rushakoff on their eponymous debut album (Roxy Music drummer Paul Thompson replaced Rushakoff for several of the later albums).
