Lynda Nutter born 1955 came to Australia when she was quite young with her family settling in WA. She is best known as the lead singer of the band The Dugites.
The Dugites combined elements of power pop, new wave and electronic, producing songs with strong melodies, hooks and a smattering of politics. With hit singles "In Your Car", "Waiting" and "Juno and Me", they received extensive airplay, appearances on Countdown and toured nationally around Australia. The band's name refers to the brown venomous snake, the dugite, common to Western Australia.
Lynda has had an extensive CV since quitting The Dugites including much theatrical experience, from Bran Nue Dae to Gabba Gabba Hey. Previous bands include: Jonnie Natural and the Naturalettes, Tarzan’s Grip, Midget and the Farellys, Stephen Cummings and Band of Roses
