Melissa Auf Der Maur

Former bassist of Courtney Love’s band Hole, and The Smashing Pumpkins, Melissa Auf Der Maur has now found herself in her own solo project with her own band, aptly named Auf Der Maur.

After collaborating with old friends from the likes of Hole, The Smashing Pumpkins and Queens of the Stone Age, Auf Der Maur has recorded her first album which was released earlier this year.

 

 

Melissa’s trademark are perhaps her many custom-made Fender basses, the most famous of which is her silver glitter bass (pictured above).
