From a childhood in the celebrity-filled canyons of California to living in squalor in Manchester while playing in cult band, the Fall, to sitting front row in fashion shows as buyer for her own fashion store, to presenting prime-time television; Brix’s journey has been one that required a fearlessness few women have and has brought inspiration to many. A pioneering musical icon, she is one of the few successful female guitarists and songwriters, working not just with the Fall but with her solo band Adult Net and her current band, Brix and the Extricated. She currently lives in Shoreditch, London, with her husband, Philip and her two pugs, Gladys and Pixie.
