Betty Blowtorch is an all-female American hard rock band from Southern California.
Betty Blowtorch was a hard rock band which formed in 1998 in Hollywood, California, United States. The band consisted of Bianca Butthole (Bianca Halstead) (vocals, bass), Sharon Needles (guitar, vocals), Blare N. Bitch (guitar) and Judy Molish (drums). Aside from Molish, the band consisted of former members of Butt Trumpet. Former L7 bassist Jennifer Finch joined the band a few years after their formation. The band released two albums, "Get Off" (1999) and "Are You Man Enough?" (2001) before splitting in December 2001 after Halstead died in an automobile accident.
A collection of rarities and live performances was released as "Last Call" in 2003.
They are the focus of Antonia Scarpa's documentary film, Betty Blowtorch And Her Amazing True Life Adventures.[4]

Bitch played guitar for an all-female Black Sabbath tribute band, Black Sabbitch while Sharon Needles and Judy Molish played in all-female AC/DC tribute band Hell's Belles.
All the original band members are currently playing shows with Mia X RockNRolla, who plays bass and lead vocals for Bianca. They are working on new music as of 2021.
