Exene Cervenka  

(born Christene Lee Cervenka, February 1, 1956) is an American writer, musician, and artist, most famous as the co-lead vocalist of the Los Angeles punk rock band X.

"X, the punk band formed in 1977 by Exene Cervenka, Billy Zoom, John Doe, and D.J. Bonebrake, came along just in time for those of us coming of age in the mid-'70's who were discovering that the conventional path through life wasn't an option. In Los Angeles at that point in time, our numbers proved to be legion, and we found each other at L.A.'s seminal punk petri dish, The Masque." —Kristine McKenna

Sean Wheeler & Zander Schloss

Based on the resumes of vocalist Sean Wheeler (Throw Rag) and multi-instrumentalist Zander Schloss (Circle Jerks, the Weirdos, Joe Strummer), you’d expect a rambunctious sound emanating from the Legendary Duo, but you’d be wrong.

The twosome plays a hybrid of folk, country, pop, ragtime, bluegrass, and gospel that includes all the frenzied energy and spirit of the duo’s aforementioned bands, but is executed with a soulful dash of Americana charm not often heard west of the Mississippi.
