Next on "Behind The Music"...
If anyone qualifies to be the first indie rock artist to get her own VH1 "Behind The Music" special, it's Bridget Cross.
Cross is a former member of seminal D.C. indie bands including Velocity Girl, Unrest, and Air Miami (which penned the incredibly catchy "World Cup Fever" anthem, reissued in 1998 and now again in 2002 to commemorate the addictive sporting event).
In the past couple of years, her visibility in the indie scene has been limited to a stint providing backing vocals for Fugazi, but this sad and twisted tale of woe has led to a series of benefit concerts, a benefit eBay auction, and the reunion of the band that went on to indie stardom without her, Velocity Girl!
Strange things are afoot in indie-land.
