Edie Sedgwick
Hometown: New York, NEW YORK
Edie Sedgwick is the transgendered reincarnation of a vacuous Andy Warhol Superstar who died of a barbiturate overdose in 1971. A visionary artist, Edie was reborn at the dawn of the New Millenium to save the world by singing, writing, and producing video about celebrities.
Armed with a video projector, her precious iMovies, and an occasional backing band, Edie travels through the dark American night presenting auditory and visual art that honors the likes of Angelina Jolie, Robert Downey, Jr., Paris Hilton, Martin Sheen, and other celebrity co-conspirators. If smarter, edgier, more ridiculous, more serious, more compelling art has been made, is being made, or will ever be made, Edie is not aware of it. Listen at Last.fmO Internet friends! O Internet fiends! Lend me — the glamorous, fantabulous Edie Sedgwick — let me your ears!!!
I am our throwaway culture’s favorite poor-little-rich girl. I am Andy Warhol's vapid Superstar carried out of Spaceship Earth’s arms by a drug overdose in 1971. I was reincarnated by mysterious means as a transgendered being in 2004 and now spread my revolutionary, celebrity-centered ideology via electrotrash odes to cultural icons like Christian Slater and Lucy Liu. On furlough from Manhattan with only an IPod containing my special collection of homebrewed beats, my traveling burlesque theater is equal parts drag show, political think-in, and celebrity roast. Le Tigre meets Black Flag for an irony-free dance party with a tranny Milton Berle as MC!
