JERRY GERONIMO
Everyone but Judy Molish had previously been in a band called Butt Trumpet – with similar sensibility though not all-female – along with vocalist Thom Bone and drummer Jerry Geronimo. Betty Blowtorch was formed in 1998, and while not exactly a pose, their brand of sex-obsessed punk is clearly performed with a wink at the audience – their first single, “Size Queen” has guest musician Vanilla Ice (“Ice Ice Baby”) rapping about the size of his member – and also has surprising professionalism. After their full-length album, Are You Man Enough? came out in 2001, Betty Blowtorch began touring with the hard rock/psychobilly band Nashville Pussy.
