Timeline
Johnette Napolitano (born Jonette L. Napolitano; September 22, 1957) is an American musician best known as the lead vocalist, songwriter, and bassist for the alternative rock group Concrete Blonde.
Johnette Napolitano was born and raised in Los Angeles, California, the eldest of five children in an Italian American family.
Her parents recognized their daughter possessed musical talent when, as a child, she was able to play "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" on piano by ear.
Her mother loved show tunes.
The family also listened to Johnny Cash, Marty Robbins, and the Rat Pack.
At age five she enrolled in a gifted kids art program at UCLA.
The pair had worked together under a variety of names since 1982.
Before Concrete Blonde, Napolitano was a member of Dream 6, who released their self-titled debut EP in 1983.
In addition to Concrete Blonde, Napolitano was involved with several musical projects including Vowel Movement, a semi-improvisational musical collaboration with Holly Beth Vincent; and Pretty & Twisted, a band that also featured former Wall of Voodoo guitarist Marc Moreland.
In 1986, Napolitano co-founded Concrete Blonde with guitarist James Mankey.
She sang and sometimes played bass guitar.
They released seven studio albums between 1986 and 2004, and one additional album as a collaboration with Los Illegals.
Concrete Blonde had several moderately successful singles, including "God is a Bullet", "Joey", "Tomorrow Wendy", and a version of "Everybody Knows" originally by Leonard Cohen.
Concrete Blonde broke up and reformed several times, with Napolitano and Mankey as the only constant members.
Napolitano also recorded a solo album titled Sound of a Woman around 1996–1997, and performed many of the songs on a solo tour opening for Paul Weller.
The album was set to be released on IRS (a subdivision of Island Records), the label of her old band, Concrete Blonde.
She is one of several vocalists featured on the 1996 album No Talking, Just Head, by The Heads, including the single "Damage I've Done".
Napolitano was the primary vocalist for The Head's only concert tour.
The Heads was originally intended to become a full-time band, with further studio albums and tours.
A live CD-video of the first tour was planned, featuring performances from many of the album's guest artists and Napolitano on vocals for the songs originally recorded by Talking Heads.
David Byrne sued the band, saying their name and presentation was too evocative of Talking Heads.
The suit was settled out of court, and The Heads ceased activity.
She has contributed music to many films, including the 1996 film Barb Wire, the 2006 Australian film Candy, and "Suicide Note" from Underworld.
The following films and TV programs also feature songs performed by Concrete Blonde:
In 1996, Napolitano produced an album by Australian group In Vivo.
Napolitano collaborated with Danny Lohner (Nine Inch Nails, A Perfect Circle, Black Light Burns) on the horror film Dead Silence.
The pair had successfully collaborated previously for the films Underworld and Wicker Park.
Napolitano contributed vocals to an album by John Trudell, and performs backing vocals in "Struck a Nerve" by Bad Religion on the Recipe For Hate album.
1997–1998 was a bad time for Island, starting with the sudden departure of founder-CEO Chris Blackwell and ending with the total reorganization of the label.
Sound of a Woman was, effectively, lost in the shuffle, and at this point is unlikely to ever be officially released.
Bootleg copies of this album are rare and highly valued.
She has recorded as a solo artist, with the albums Sketchbook (2002), Sketchbook 2 (2006), Scarred (2007), and Sketchbook 3 (2010).
As of 2009, Napolitano lived in Joshua Tree, California.
She composes music for films and works as a gallery artist, specializing in working with discarded and reclaimed materials.
She also cares for rescue horses.
The band has not been active since 2012.
