Gossip

Gossip is an American indie rock band with a funky punk soundtrack consisting of the charismatic singer Beth Ditto, guitarist Brace Paine and drummer Hannah Blilie. The band released their debut EP ‘The Gossip’ in 1999, their debut studio album ‘That's Not What I Heard’ in 2001 and their second studio album ‘Movement’ in 2003, with Kathy Mendonça on drums. Afterwards, Hannah Blilie joined Gossip on drums and after the release of their 2006 album ‘Standing in the Way of Control' the band broke through. The album earned a Gold Record Status in the UK and exceeded numerous audience records. Their follow-up album, ‘Music for Men’, released in 2009 brought unanimous praise from critics and countless fans around the globe. 'A Joyful Noise' released in 2012 secured the influence and global recognition of Gossip in the years to follow. The band confirmed their split in 2016, but fortunately for many fans, Gossip reunited and announced their first new album release in 11 years ‘Real Power’ produced by Rick Rubin and set for release in March 2024. The album’s lead single 'Crazy Again' released in November 2023 consolidates their musical expression and the rebellious attitude Beth Ditto delivers in her performances.
