Jo Bench

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jo-Anne Bench is a death metal bass player from Leamington Spa, England^[1]. She plays bass in Bolt Thrower on all albums, but not on the demos. She has been a vegetarian since 1984^[1].

Bench joined the band in 1987^[1] shortly after Gavin Ward switched from bass guitar to guitar^[2]. At the time, she was Ward's long-time girlfriend^[3] and one of the few women playing in a death metal band, besides bands as Delirium, and Acrostichon.
