Veronica's debut album, "All I Want," from 1997 was nominated for a GLAMA Award for Best Recording by a Female Artist. And her worthy, if belated, followup is this year's "Live at the Lodge."

"glamour shot" of Veronica

from Georgie's bio:

"Georgie Jessup is a three time WAMMIE nominated singer songwriter, a 2004 INDIAN SUMMER MUSIC AWARD’S nominee, and musician of extraordinary passion. S/he has an equally extraordinary ability to encourage audiences to look deeply into their prejudices and other transgressions. Consequently, audiences tend to respond emotionally, if not always lovingly."

and I agree, her passion, whether it be speaking about the trangressions against Native Americans, or transgender issues, comes across soundly with memorable lyrics and music to cut to the chase, and to the heart.

Georgie's released four albums:  "Wintke & Crazy Sacred Dogs," "Sweet Grass Smoke," "American Holocaust," and now "Woman in a Man's Suit." Below are a couple photosof Georgie from "Urban Productions & The Fresh Fruit Festival presents The Trans Rock Explosion," which was at Bowery Poetry Club, July 16, 2005.

And, when Georgie sent me her press kit, she included a paper she wrote on the Wintke Concept, which also casts a fascinating light on transgender and gay issues. She has allowed me to share it with my site visitors, at This Page.

Just for fun...

...Georgie's song inspired me to do a little surgery to this photo I found...:)

I did the "math," and over the years on these 15 shows,
I've played 142 different TG artists, and over
350 different songs, some of them several times, and I routinely
include TG artists on most of my other shows
