[edit] History

Moulder began studying music on trumpet and piano, and initially didn't envision a musical career for herself. She received a Bachelor of Science in Engineering.[1] Her first job out of college took her to Florida. She began playing keyboard for a live band, and moved to bass to fill the void left by a departing bandmate. She quickly discovered an aptitude for the instrument, and began looking for other people who shared her outlook on music. She found them in Tenni Ah-Cha-Cha, Jessicka Fodera, and Michelle Inhell, and the four of them created Jack Off Jill.

Moulder was with Jack Off Jill from its inception to its demise, having written or cowritten most of the music for the band over its lifetime.[2] She and Jessicka watched over a revolving door of musicians throughout the band's history, including Scott Putesky, aka Daisy Berkowitz, the original guitarist from Marilyn Manson, and Chris Vrenna of Tweaker, formerly of Nine Inch Nails. Fodera and Moulder finally called it quits in 2000.

Soon thereafter, Moulder struck up a friendship with TC, formerly of the band Triggerpimp, and the two women agreed to collaborate on a project together, which would later be called TCR. Later that year, Moulder moved to Detroit to serve as the Chief Technology Officer for a startup company,[3] but she and TC stayed in contact and began crafting their release via phone, FedEx, and FTP. This release would be called The Chrome Recordings.

Guests on The Chrome Recordings include Chris Vrenna, Scott Putesky, method from Godhead, and more. In early 2004, TCR released the special edition of The Chrome Recordings. In fall 2004, they released the retail version. They are scheduled to release their second album in 2007.

Moulder is married to game designer Colin McComb. They have two children.
