BIOGRAPHY:
HER was co-founded by guitarist Trisha Doan and singer
Rose Perry in August 2001 with the intention of
demonstrating that "chicks can rock just as hard as boys".
Recruiting fellow high school best friends Cara Moyer, &
Kerry Hayden, bass and drums, respectively, HER was a
learning experience and beneficial stepping stone for all of
those involved. In fact, Moyer and Hayden picked up their
instruments for the first time for the sake of the group.
Performing both covers and original
material in the London music scene for several years, HER
achieved a great deal of success and exposure through the
local media, and some of their most notable performances
include support slots for Tuuli, Candyass, Ruth's Hat,
The Weekend, Two Minute Miracles, and LiveonRelease.
At a very early juncture in their career, they even managed to
secure a slot playing to a crowd of 20,000 boaters at the
annual Turkey Point Pottahawk Pissup!
Shortly after the release of their debut album, Straight
From the Loft in 2003, HER disbanded due to a lack of
cohesion in terms of future direction, however all of HER's
members continued to obtain prosper in various
entertainment-related endeavours alongside their scholarly
studies: Trisha Doan persisted with music and is the current
bassist for Kittie, Kerry Hayden has toyed with the
idea of being a bassist in various local projects and
recently started her own photography company, Cara Moyer
relocated to Montreal and decided to pursue her main love in
life: drama , and Rose Perry founded her latest musical
project ANTI-HERO in 2005, and some of the unreleased
material she wrote back in the HER days was reworked
to appear on ANTI-HERO's
debut effort, Unpretty.
