Betty

Ahoy Saturday 23 July at the closing party

BETTY is an alternative rock group from New York City. The band’s harmonies and unique lyrics attracted a cult following in the vibrant alternative music scene and among gay/lesbian audiences. The band achieved notoriety by making their first major gig as a band an ‘autobiographical’ two-act musical at the legendary DC Space in February 1987. Entitled ‘BETTY: Inside Out’’, the show established the tongue-in-cheek personas of the band that follow them to present day: the ego of egomaniacal diva Amy, the id of shame-free rebel Elizabeth, and the superego of calm superhero Alyson. The wild success of that sold-out run led to appearances at the ultra-hot clubs and lounges of the late 80s scene in New York City.

Activist entertainers, BETTY is as well-known for their performances at rallies for causes in which they believe, including equality and rights for women and girls.

In the meantime, they have won two Emmy Awards and two BMI Career Excellence Awards. BETTY is touring worldwide with the legendary live show, where their hits will undoubtedly become more memorable from various TV show engagements.
