About The Lewd

Lewd was an US West coast punk band active throughout 1978-1982, the Lewd originated in Seattle in the late 1970's, then migrated south to San Francisco where they gained critical acclaim. Other than singer J. Sats Baret, who remained a constant, the group underwent numerous personnel changes both in Seattle and in San Francisco, too many to outline here in any great detail. During the band's strongest incarnation - J. Sats Baret on vocals, Bob Clic on guitar, Olga Devolga on bass and Chris Reece (ex-Social Distortion) on drums, they released their only LP, America Wino, on ICI Records in 1982. Later the complete discography including demo stuff was released as 2xLP - "Kill yourself again"
