Libby Picken has been singing ever since she can remember. Growing up, some of her favorite musicians and bands included and ranged from Madonna and Deee-Lite, to Minor Threat, Helmet, Fugazi, Soulstice, Zhane, and Erykah Badu. She has publicly performed classical Broadway show tunes such as ‘Think Of Me’ from Phantom of the Opera, and ‘On My Own’ from Les Miserables. She has received vocal instruction from a nationally accredited opera singer, who is also a voice instructor at the respected Peabody Institute.



Libby Picken has been a staple in the DC/Baltimore rave and electronic dance music scene since 1994. She released her first record in 1998. Libby continues to release dance music records with various artists, labels, and producers. She writes the lyrics and melodies to the majority of her works. She is consistently writing and working on new projects.



Libby's latest venture is with the band, "Lazerbitch". "Lazerbitch" consists of Libby and "Mad Max" Maxwell Houston. Their crazy disco/electro/club sound has just started to rock dancefloors everywhere. She has also recently thrown her hat into the acting arena. Libby's first role was in a short film by Dara Taylor entitled "Opiated: Life Beneath the Eyelids". Future film roles for Libby are in the works.
