Best known for her tenure with the legendary Mekons, singer Sally Timms was born November 29, 1959 in Leeds, England; as a teen she became infatuated by glam rock, but it was the rise of punk which inspired her to pursue a musical career of her own, and in 1980 she collaborated with the Buzzcocks' Pete Shelley on the album Hangahar. Timms fronted her own all-female group the Shee Hees before joining the Mekons in 1985, debuting on the acclaimed Fear and Whiskey; two years later, she and backing outfit the Drifting Cowgirls issued an EP, The Butcher Boy.
