About BETTY

BETTY is the original pop rock band fronted by Alyson Palmer and sisters Elizabeth and Amy Ziff. Based in New York City, the band's defiant attitude and signature sound of tight harmonies, infectious melodies and evocative lyrics layered over strong grooves are making their devoted cult grow larger every year. BETTY performs wildly memorable and boundary-pushing live shows all over the world.

Fierce Elizabeth (vocals, guitar), funky Alyson (vocals, bass) and funny Amy (vocals, cello) are the songwriters and arrangers. At times, their onstage banter between songs adds a dizzying and hilarious dimension to their live shows, ensuring that no two of their one thousand performances have ever been the same. On some shows, BETTY is joined by guitarist Tony Salvatore and drummer Mino Gori.

In September 2009, BETTY pre-released the album “Bright & Dark”, produced by David Maurice (Kelis, DefJam). Their eighth recording since 1992, the songs create a lush and lively exploration of the challenges and triumphs of the past two years of their lives, including Elizabeth’s battle with breast cancer. It features vocal contributions by Kate Pierson of the B-52’s and is their most fully-realized song collection to date. Pre-release cuts from the album have been featured on the hit television series Ugly Betty and The L Word.

Originally from Washington DC, activists BETTY fight fiercely for what they believe, including equal rights for all and the empowerment of girls and women. During the two decades they’ve been performing together, the fundraisers in which they have taken part have helped raise over $50,000,000.
