  • Paula P-Orridge, also known as Alaura O'Dell, is a English musician. P-Orridge's musical career began in 1979 when she met musician and artist Genesis P-Orridge while working at a Tesco supermarket in Hackney, East London. Prior to meeting Genesis she had had some connection to the Industrial Records music scene by having performed with band 23 Skidoo. Genesis was a member of seminal band Throbbing Gristle, an originator of industrial music and an influential figure in the development of post-punk and electronica. Prior to Throbbing Gristle's last show, Paula married Genesis in Tijuana, Mexico; they had two daughters, Caresse and Genesse. In the early 1990s Paula and Genesis left the United Kingdom in a self-imposed exile during which time they divorced. In 1995 while in the United States she released a solo ambient music and spoken word album, Sacred Dreams, on the San Francisco, California based record label, Silent Records. Sacred Dreams differed from her previous work, and she released the album under her real name of Alaura O'Dell. The album was recorded in December 1994 in collaboration with Justin Beck, a Californian electronica artist. The Sacred Dreams album was also the debut of P-Orridge's new interest in spirituality and new-age mysticism. Sacred Dreams has been re-released on Justin Beck's label, Sanctioned Records, only as an mp3.
