Doro Pesch (born June 3, 1964, Düsseldorf, Germany) is a female vocalist, formerly of the Heavy metal band Warlock.

After many personnel changes in Warlock, she was the only surviving original member and instead of releasing a fourth album under their name, it was released under Doro.

She now pursues a solo career and lives in New York, United States. Her most recent album Classic Diamonds is a collaboration with The Classic Night Orchestra which reworked some of her earlier songs.

Biography

Originally in the group Snakebite, but in 1983 she left to join Warlock. In 1987, after Warlock's fourth album, Triumph And Agony, enough band members had been exchanged that Doro Pesch was the only remaining member. What would be Warlock's fifth album was released instead under Doro.

Her ten year contract with Polygram expired in 1995, when she signed with WEA (now Warner Music Group).

In 1995, Doro made her acting debut on the German television program "Verbotene Liebe" (Forbidden Love).

After the "Love Me In Black" tour in 1998, Doro parted ways from WEA and signed at SPV Steamhammer. She also signed a U.S. deal KOCH.
