Jutta Weinhold is a German rock singer.

Biography

Jutta Weinhold was born in Mainz. In the late 1960s she sang in amateur bands. In 1969 she was engaged in the role of "Sheila" in the musical Hair, followed by engagements in the musicals Godspell and Jesus Christ Superstar in 1972. In 1974 she made some appearances with Amon Düül II and appeared in the television program disco. Weinhold has been playing Blues-Sessions with the Kaftan-Blues-Band since 1975. In 1976 she released the LP "Coming" under her name, which was followed by the album Jutta Weinhold in 1978. From 1976 to 1978, she was a guest musician with Udo Lindenberg. As a result from this collaboration, Udo Lindenberg's first live album Livehaftig, on which Weinhold had sung all female vocal parts, was released in 1979. For a production of the Senate of Berlin the Jutta Weinhold Band recorded the LP "Mach 'nen Bogen um die Drogen" in 1980. In 1982 she released the German album Volksmusik with the formation Breslau. Due to the misleading naming and the album's provocative lyrics, she was accused of having sympathies for right-wing thought.
Her band Zed Yago, founded in 1985, is considered to be a pioneer in the genre of Dramatic Metal. The band's concept albums deal with the experiences of a fictitious daughter of the Flying Dutchman. After a legal dispute the project later changed its name to Velvet Viper and Weinhold. However, the success of Zed Yago could not be continued.
In addition to her own projects, Weinhold is also active as a session and studio musician. In October 2011 Jutta Weinhold published her first book "Die Tochter des Fliegenden Holländers: Auf der Suche nach der verlorenen PhantaSIE", which once again is about the daughter of the Flying Dutchman. Weinhold also had small appearances in supporting roles in films. Since 2012 Jutta Weinhold performs with the Jutta Weinhold Band.
