About the artist

Vixen is a hard rock/glam metal band from St. Paul, Minnesota, USA, that was formed in 1971 under the name Lemon Paper. In its early years, the band changed its name to Genesis and Vixen before splitting up in 1974. In 1980, the band was re-formed under the name Vixen. It also appeared under the name Diaper Rash. Not to be confused with Vixen from Hawaii and Vixen from New York, Vixen from Australia, Vixen from France, Vixen from Japan, Vixen and Vixen from the United Kingdom and Vixen from Sweden.

The band was formed by guitarist Jan Kuehnemund while still at Como Park High School. They were the first all female rock band from the Twin Cities.. In 1984, an early version of the band with Kuehnemund, singer Janet Gardner and bassist Pia Maiocco (who later married guitarist Steve Vai) appeared in the movie Hardbodies, as the on-screen band Diaper Rash. In 1985, the band moved to Los Angeles, California to be part of the L.A. rock scene.

Lineup changes happened during the following years until the "classic lineup" of Janet Gardner (b. Janet Patricia Gardner on March 17, 1962 in Juneau, Alaska, USA) - lead vocals, rhythm guitar, Jan Kuehnemund (b. Janice Lynn "Jan" Kuehnemund, November 18, 1962 โ€“ October 10, 2013) - lead guitar, background vocals, Share Pedersen (b. Sharon June Howe on March 21, 1963 in Glencoe, Minnesota) - bass, background vocals, and Roxy Petrucci (b. Roxy Dora Petrucci on March 17, 1960 in Rochester, Michigan) - drums, background vocals, was formed. This lineup of Vixen was interviewed in 1987 along with many other rock artists of the day by Penelope Spheeris for her film The Decline of Western Civilization II: The Metal Years.

In 1988 the band was signed to EMI, and they began recording their debut album. Vixen spent the next year touring the world, supporting acts such as Ozzy Osbourne, Scorpions, and Bon Jovi, as well as headlining their own shows. The band returned to the studio in late 1989/early 1990 to record their follow-up album, Rev It Up, which was released in July 1990. A year of touring followed, including headlining their own shows and supporting acts such as KISS and Deep Purple. In mid-1991, the group disbanded due to musical differences.

Various members of the band attempted reunions throughout the 1990s and 2000s. As of February 2022, Roxy Petrucci is the only member of the "classic" line-up still performing under the Vixen banner.
