Artist History
In 1992, Kym Trippsmith teamed up with Cat Taylor and made her play rock and roll. Together, they created a powerful force to be reckoned with adding bass, drums, the crystal clear harmonies of Amy Grisham, and the occasional lead guitarist(including Paul Kovan pictured above). Amazon Queen has since performed all over the West Coast intriguing audiences with their wild style and musical brilliance—moving the party to the dance floor and tempting the mind with thought-provoking lyrics. |
