Betty Blowtorch

Betty Blowtorch was an American hard-rock, glam-influenced all-female band formed in Orange County, California, active from 1998 to 2001. Their career was cut short by the death of bassist/leader Bianca Halstead (stage name Bianca Butthole) in a 2001 car accident.

Their album Are You Man Enough? is highlighted in the DeBaser review as the band's most representative work (15 tracks) with songs such as "Hell on Wheels", "Love/Hate", "I Wanna Be Your Sucker" and "Frankie". The band combined hard-rock power with glam/80s-influenced melodies and ironic lyrics.
