Check out this new episode of Board to Death with founding member & guitarist from Lunachicks, singer & guitarist in Bantam, and solo artist, Gina Volpe! We were stoked to meet with Gina and chat about her rig while she was working with Barb Morrison on her new record. Gina’s current board includes the Sea Machine and Astral Destiny, and some custom pedals that her husband built with Gina’s own artwork, including a delay she called “The Lolly Gagger”. It was great hanging out with Barb & Gina and we look forward to hearing her new record!
Gina started playing in the late 80s in high school when she and her friends formed Lunachicks.
They caught the attention of Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore, who helped the band land a record deal. In 2001, Gina formed the power trio Bantam, which was resurrected in 2022 with their first single in over a decade titled “YO-YO”. Gina’s keeping busy, working on a full-length solo album due out this year.
