Wendy Stuart will be hosting TriVersity Talk! this Wednesday at 7 PM ET with featured guest Bitch.

TriVersity Talk! is a weekly web series with featured guests discussing their lives, activism and pressing issues in the LGBTQ Community. With TriVersity Talk!, the goal is to laugh and learn.

TriVersity Talk! Is part of TriVersity’s ICARE Initiative. ICARE stands for Increasing Community Awareness through Relevant Education. ICARE Programs are generously funded by The Greater Pike Community Foundation.

Bitch (Creator/Performer) is a longstanding queer music icon who Yahoo Entertainment called “a feminist force that the world needs now more than ever” when she released “Bitchcraft,” her 9th studio album, on the legendary label Kill Rock Stars in 2022.  With her signature electric violin and lyrical smarts front and center over huge beats and deep synths, Bitch coined the genre “Poet Pop.” “Bitchcraft is a masterpiece,” said Amy Ray of the Indigo Girls. Both Indigo Girls and Ani DiFranco took Bitch on tour as their opener. Joey Soloway (Transparent) directed the music video for “Easy Target.” 

Bitch first achieved notoriety as one half of the folk duo Bitch and Animal. The duo had met in acting school at DePaul University (formerly the Goodman School of Drama), where Bitch was the recipient of the Merit Scholarship for two years in a row. They toured with Ani DiFranco, and released two albums on her label Righteous Babe Records, and were nominated for a GLAAD Media award in 2003. In 2004, Bitch went solo, and shared stages with the Indigo Girls, acted in John Cameron Mitchell’s film “Shortbus,” co-wrote a song with Margaret Cho, and produced two albums of her elder and folk hero Ferron. 

Recently, she played a role in  the new Audible podcast of Alison Bechdel’s “Dykes To Watch Out For,” alongside Jane Lynch, Carrie Brownstein and Roxane Gay. The series was directed by Leigh Silverman (Suffs, Violet, Well), and Bitch co-wrote a song for it with Faith Soloway (Transparent, A Transparent Musical). 


When it was time to tour Bitchcraft, Bitch longed to return to her theatrical roots and add a new element to her stage show. She teamed up with co-writer Margie Zohn to ‘craft’ an autobiographical tale that Bitch took on a National headlining record release tour, dragging props and costume changes to over 100 rock clubs across the US. The show has gained momentum and has taken on a life of its own. Bitch presented new iterations of it at Joe’s Pub in NY, as well as a 12 week residency of it in Provincetown, MA in the Summer of 2024.
