Artist Biography
Pip Brown (born c. 1979), better known by her stage name Ladyhawke, is a solo singer-songwriter, playing all the instruments in studio and touring with a band. She was formerly a part of the Wellington, New Zealand band Two Lane Blacktop and the Sydney duo Teenager with Nick Littlemore of Pnau. Ladyhawke named herself after the Rutger Hauer film Ladyhawke. Ladyhawke is best known for the 2008 single "Paris Is Burning", which she wrote after a visit to Paris. Her debut album was released on Modular in September 2008.
Born with Asperger's Syndrome, Pip was a music-obsessed child with very musical parents (step-father a drummer, mother a singer), she soaked up everything from the 70’s and 80’s. From Stevie Nicks and Joan Jett to Nirvana and Hole with Van Halen and Deep Purple in between. The result is a refreshing blend of rock, dance and classic song writing. As well as writing Back Of The Van, Pip also plays the drums, guitar and synth on the track.
