Like many others, I was a big fan of Femme Fatale back in the late 80s. Many of us will have vinyl copies of their 1988 self titled album in our collections and of course who can forget those videos for “Waiting for the Big One” and “Falling In And Out of Love”?!? The album is still one that all fans of 80s rock should own and my vinyl version gave way to a CD copy many years ago. The original Femme Fatale line-up parted ways in 1990 before the release of their second album. Now they’re back with Lorraine Lewis at the helm again, leading an all girl line-up with Courtney Cox and Nita Strauss from the Iron Maidens on guitar, Janis Tanaka on bass, Katt Scarlett on keyboards and Athena on drums.
I’ve been following Lorraine Lewis on MySpace, Facebook and Twitter for many years, and am delighted that she agreed to answer a few questions in the midst of a very hectic schedule that involves not only Femme Fatale but LPL Productions. Femme Fatale recently returned from the second appearance on the Monster of Rock Cruise and appear at the M3 Rock Festival in Columbia later this month.
