  • Le Betty Blowtorch erano un gruppo rock formatosi verso la fine degli anni novanta in California. La band era composta da Bianca Halstead "Butthole" (voce e basso), Blare N Bitch (chitarra), Sharon Needles (chitarra) e Judy Molish (batteria), tutte ex componenti del gruppo punk Butt Trumpet che però vedeva la Halstead solo come vocalist di secondo piano. Dopo un primo EP uscito nel 1999 intitolato Get Off che non ha avuto grande visibilità, nel 2001 esce Are You Man Enough?, album che ha ricevuto ottime critiche; dal vivo la band inizia ad essere conosciuta anche per le esibizioni che prevedono un pericoloso utilizzo del fuoco, sfidando qualsiasi norma base di sicurezza. L'attività della band si ferma bruscamente con la morte di Bianca nel 2001 in un incidente stradale avvenuto a New Orleans poco dopo un concerto della band. Nel 2003 esce Last Call, una raccolta di live ed inediti, alla cui creazione ha lavorato anche Thom Bone, il cantante dei Butt Trumpet. Nel 2006 Anthony Scarpa farà uscire un film-documentario su di loro, intitolato Betty Blowtorch And Her Amazing True Life Adventures.
  • Betty Blowtorch – amerykański zespół kobiecy z Kalifornii, grający hardcore punk i hard rock, założony w 1998 roku przez trzy członkinie zespołu Butt Trumpet: Sharon Needles, Blare N. Bitch i Biancę Butthole. Swój pierwszy album Get Off zespół wydał wiosną 1999 roku, ale dopiero ich drugi krążek Are You Man Enough? przyniósł im światową sławę. Podczas trasy koncertowej z Nashville Pussy w 2001 roku, ze składu odeszły: perkusistka Judy Molish i gitarzystka Sharon Needles. Na ich miejsce przyjęto Jennifer Finch z zespołu L7. W grudniu tego samego roku, wokalistka i basistka zespołu Bianca Butthole zginęła w wypadku samochodowym w Nowym Orleanie, spowodowanym przez pijanego kierowcę samochodu, którego była pasażerką. To wydarzenie było przyczyną zakończenia działalności muzycznej zespołu. W 2003 roku ukazał się ich ostatni album Last Call z nagraniami z koncertów na żywo. W 2003 roku Anthony Scarpa wyreżyserował o zespole film dokumentalny pt. Betty Blowtorch (And Her Amazing True Life Adventures). Film zdobył Nagrodę Publiczności na Los Angeles Silver Lake Film Festival.
