Beki Bondage (born Rebecca Louise Bond) is a musician in the punk band, Vice Squad and was one of its founder members in 1978.[1]
She featured on the front cover of a number of influential music tabloids such as Melody Maker, NME, Smash Hits and Sounds.
In 1983, she left Vice Squad to form the band Ligotage with Steve Roberts of UK Subs. Sales of their first single "Crime and Passion" (1983, EMI) were disappointing, and their only album, Forgive and Forget, was released on the independent Picasso Records label.
Following the release of two solo singles in 1985, Bondage formed The Bombshells (often billed as "Beki & the Bombshells") in 1986. The band continued to play on the London club and punk circuit for many years.
In 1998, she reformed Vice Squad with a new line-up; the band continues to record and tour.
She also released a solo album of covers in 2000 entitled Cold Turkey.
