Heidi Shepherd, born on April 17, 1985, in California, is best known as the fierce frontwoman and main vocalist of the American metal band Butcher Babies. Growing up in California, Heidi developed a passion for music at a young age. She was drawn to the raw energy and aggression of heavy metal music, which would later fuel her own musical career.
In 2011, Heidi joined forces with Carla Harvey, Henry Flury, Jason Klein, and Chase Brickenden to form Butcher Babies. The band quickly made a name for themselves in the metal scene with their intense live performances and unique sound.
One of the band's early milestones came in 2011 when they released a comic book at San Diego Comic-Con. Illustrated by Anthony Winn, the comic book showcased Butcher Babies' larger-than-life persona and added visual dimension to their music.
Butcher Babies' hard work and dedication paid off when they released their debut album, Goliath, in 2013. The album peaked at #112 on the Billboard 200 chart, solidifying Butcher Babies' place in the metal world. Heidi's powerful vocals and commanding stage presence captivated audiences and earned her a loyal fanbase.
Heidi currently resides in Los Angeles, California, where she continues to make music and inspire fans with her fearless attitude. In addition to her music career, Heidi is also known for her relationship with fellow bandmate Henry Flury. The couple's chemistry on and off the stage adds an extra layer of depth to Butcher Babies' music.
One of the band's biggest influences is rock icon Marilyn Manson. Drawing inspiration from Manson's theatricality and boundary-pushing artistry, Butcher Babies push the boundaries of metal music and challenge conventions.
