Biography

Formation

The band began when three gay men met at the Cedar Springs Block Party, the annual Dallas gay Halloween celebration. The founding members of She-Dick were Miss Candi Shell, Miss Gloria Hole, Miss Annie Rex and the producer, Hans HandiKraft, who began toying with gender roles and creating electropop beats with hyper-sexual, gender-bending themes.[3] In July 2007, Rex left the band and Princess Persia joined.[4]

After She-Dick walked the runway at the DIFFA (Design Industry Fashion For AIDS) 2007 Dallas Collection charity event that things really took off for the band.[3] Its first live performance was at Rubber Gloves Rehearsal Studios performing with the touring bands Femme Fatality and Lazer as well as a duet with Teresa Nasty. She-Dick opened for the gay rapper Cazwell at Minc Lounge,[5] a Dallas nightclub that hosts performances by artists such as Erykah Badu, Kaskade and DJ Tiesto.[3] [6]
