Gina Birch has been creating groundbreaking sound and images for nearly five decades. Best known as a founding member of the pioneering post-punk band The Raincoats, Birch helped shape a musical vocabulary that was raw, self-determined, and unconcerned with the rules. Formed in 1977 with Ana da Silva while at Hornsey College of Art, The Raincoats became a touchstone for artists from Kurt Cobain to Bikini Kill—valued as much for their fearless experimentation as for their songs.
Birch’s creative life has always extended beyond The Raincoats. She’s made music with Dorothy and The Hangovers, directed videos for New Order and The Libertines, and built an amazing visual art practice consisting of video work and painting. Her piece “3 Minute Scream” was part of the Tate Britain's "Women in Revolt!" exhibition in 2024 and her work has been in shown in galleries worldwide..
Her solo work, produced by Youth of Killing Joke, includes 2023’s I Play My Bass Loud and her latest release Trouble (2025) all out via Third Man.
