Shirley Ann Manson (born 26 August 1966) is a Scottish musician, actress, and the lead vocalist of the band Garbage.
She began her career in Edinburgh in the early 1980s, most notably performing backing vocals and keyboards for local band Goodbye Mr. Mackenzie before fronting side-project Angelfish while signed as a solo artist. Having seen Manson in an Angelfish video on MTV, Garbage invited Manson to record with them as the band's lead singer.
With Garbage on hiatus after four successful studio albums, one greatest hits compilation and over 14 million record sales, Manson began recording solo material in 2006 and continues to embark on a solo career. Although fans anticipated a 2008 release of new material, complications with record company Geffen, which was turned off by the dark nature of Manson's music, make a 2008 release unlikely.
Shirley Manson was cast on Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles as a series regular Catherine Weaver, the CEO of a major technology company, and also an antagonist terminator, for the second season. She also sings the Blind Willie Johnson song heard in the opening scene of "Samson and Delilah", the first episode of that season. [Wiki]
