Doro Pesch, who is celebrating 40 years in rock, runs down the mixtape of her life. She heard Little Richard as a toddler, survived a punkocalypse with her first band, Snakebite, and became the high priestess of metal in Warlock and as a solo artist.
THE FIRST MUSIC I REMEMBER HEARING
When I was three years old I heard Lucille by Little Richard. That’s when I knew I wanted to be a singer.
THE FIRST SONG I PERFORMED LIVE
My first band was Snakebite, and my first gig with them was inI did my best… Then the punks got fed up with us because they wanted to hear punk rock, so they came on stage and destroyed our amps and instruments. That was my first gig! It was hard work.
