BIOGRAPHY

De Fatwa's

De Fatwa's is a female punkrockband from Amsterdam (Holland) and exist since february 2003. Their music is a fast take on the basics of late 70ties punk. The songs are straightforward and short, with lyrics about women's issues and social politics. They are composed of a guitarist, bassist, drummer and a singer with raw vocals.

Mari~hyena- drums

My first stage-experience was in 1980 as background singer with the band called TRUX at age 11 years. Later in 1983 I sung with Pravda as background singer. In 1987 I first started as drummer in Machine Check. Then I had I lot of different local Amsterdam bands as Pravda, Loggerhead, Flaxibillies, Sweetmeat, BBBBBBand, Lazy, Avé Marina and Pane. In January 2003 Yasmean and Faby ask me to play drums in their new band and Claudia came in February so that's the way DE FATWA'S exists. For me it is the fastest band I ever had and with only girlzzz. I have a lot of blisters and broke a lot of sticks but I like it very much with this girlzzz. We already played a lot and we have a lot of fun.
