Betsy

Betsy is an American heavy metal and hard rock group that records under the name of its lead vocalist, Betsy Weiss. It is active from 1988 to 1989 and is also known as Bitch. The band is associated with S&M-themed heavy metal, but for this release it shifts toward a softer sound and image.

History

After Bitch does not achieve commercial success, the group records as Betsy. The act’s only release under this name is the 1988 album Betsy. That record also does not chart successfully, and the band then returns to its earlier name and style.

Line-up and style

The group is fronted by Betsy Weiss. Its music sits within hard rock and heavy metal, and it is an American metal band. The project is a short-lived branch of Bitch rather than a separate long-running act.
