If the rebellious youth of society had a queen back in the mid to late 80’s you can bet your life that queen would have been a seemingly shy young lady from Violet Town called Ella Hooper. Coupling her struggles of being brought up in a small country town with the almost overwhelming burdens that life as a teenager can throw at you, Hooper and brother Jesse formed a band called Killing Heidi and instantly struck a chord with a new generation of fans for which music was their only salvation.
Killing Heidi are still mesmerising audiences decades after sharing their life and struggles via music. Their enduring popularity and renewed zest saw the band rewarded with a slot at GOOD THINGS 2024.
HEAVY caught up with guitarist Jesse Hooper to find out more.
