Jane Marie Genevieve Wiedlin is an American musician, singer-songwriter, and actress best known as the rhythm guitarist and backing vocalist of the new wave band The Go-Go's. Jane Wiedlin has also had a solo musical career. As a child, Wiedlin liked to listen to pop music, especially songs by The Beatles and The Monkees. By the time she was a teenager, Wiedlin was a fan of Sparks. Years later, she would record "Cool Places" with them.
Wiedlin attended William Howard Taft High School in Los Angeles from 1972 until 1976. While attending college in the Los Angeles area, for fashion design, Wiedlin worked at a fashion design house where she created song lyrics, by scribbling down ideas on clothing patterns. "Jane Drano," as she came to be known, would later design punk-style clothing that she sold at Granny Takes a Trip, a store on Sunset Boulevard. She became part of the scene that spawned bands like X, The Germs, and The Weirdos. Wiedlin and Belinda Carlisle formed The Go-Go's as a punk band called the Misfits in 1978, with Margot Olaverra on bass, and Elissa Bello on drums. In 1981, Wiedlin and Terry Hall of Fun Boy Three and The Specials co-wrote "Our Lips Are Sealed". The song peaked on the Billboard charts at No. 20 and remained on the charts until 1982. Wiedlin remained part of The Go-Go's until October 1984, when she left to pursue a solo career. "Rush Hour" (1988) was her most successful single - having done well in both the American and British charts. Wiedlin has released four solo albums. Jane Wiedlin (self titled) in 1985, Fur in 1988, Tangled in 1990 and Kissproof World in 2000. In addition, from 1995 to 1998, she was a member of the band FroSTed, which released one album, Cold, in 1996.
In 2017, Wiedlin teamed up multi instrumentalist and songwriter Pietro Straccia to form a new psychedelic, pop, electronic duo Elettrodomestico. Wiedlin's early acting credits include a brief appearance in several films. Wiedlin has also provided voices for several characters in television and film animation.
