Pretty Poison

Vocalist Jade Starling and keyboardist Whey Cooler shaped the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania-based Pretty Poison in 1981. Over time, the band’s recordings highlighted musicians such as for example Lou Franco (electric guitar), Bobby Corea (Cooler’s younger sibling; drums), and David “Kaya” Pryor (percussion). Their 1981 debut one, “Gimme Gimme Your Autograph,” provided spiky new influx, however the group got on the darker, even more synthesizer-oriented sound for “Simply no Tears” (a Tuxedomoon cover) and “Expiration,” after that resolved into freestyle-inspired membership music. “Nightime,” released in 1984, peaked at amount 14 on Billboard’s dance graph. “Capture Me I’m Dropping,” Very Poison’s next one, didn’t arrive until 1987, nonetheless it topped the dance graph and reached the very best Ten from the Scorching 100, helped partly by publicity from its positioning in the soundtrack to Concealing Out. Capture Me I’m Dropping, the band’s initial album, premiered on Virgin in 1988 and highlighted a remixed edition of “Nighttime.” The next Pretty Poison record, the house-oriented Euphoria, premiered in 1998. Starling continuing to execute and released her initial solo record, Captive, in 2014.
