General Ginger is the burlesque love-child of David Bowie and Laura Ingalls Wilder. She began her musical career by learning the kazoo at age 5. This transformed into a natural talent of both piano and harpsichord, with a musical major in college (the skin flute). Ginger was in an alternative rock band in her early 20's, but got caught up in drugs and prescription cough syrup (leading to her musical demise).

Musical influences include Full On Venus, Easy E, and Karen Carpenter. General Ginger's debut album, "The Harlot Letter" was both praised and damned by critics, with one critic citing that it was "the worst thing I've heard since Siouxsie and the Banshees." Infuriated by this insulting review, General Ginger headed a protest in front of the critic's house and demanded an apology (while chanting "Peek-a-boo" with over 50 British protesters). An instrumental version of "Abigail Fury" (the album's single) can be found on 1001 Catholic Listening Hits - Praise Be To The Saint Sister of the Holy Founders of The River Bed Queen - Mary. Josh Homme is said to be playing backup guitar for this single, but this is not confirmed.

While many musical sources claimed to have known General Ginger, there are no reported sightings, concerts, or known whereabouts of the General. Some say she has disappeared into thin air (with one source swearing she was abducted by aliens). Other sources claim that she retired from music and is living peacefully under an assumed name. Regardless, General Ginger will always be known for her lyrical gangster skills, full-pipe beats, and glam-our style. Generalginger1979 (talk) 08:27, 10 February 2013 (UTC)
