British new wave band The Photos had a hit album on the UK chart in 1980 with their self-titled release. They started as a punk band called Satan’s Rats. After a lineup change, which included adding a female singer named Wendy Wu, they became The Photos. #VinylTapCurrent

I am heartbroken to have to share this news w/the MN music community - yesterday we lost an amazing artist, woman, & friend. A truly genuine person who had a passion for her community & a drive to share that passion with the world.
We will miss her more than words can express. 🖤

Today is an unbelievably hard day. Yesterday we lost one of the strongest, kindest, badass women we have ever had the pleasure of calling our friend, bandmate, bandleader, and family. The world, once again, lost a great one. We'll miss you, Di.
