Transcription
Background
Following the breakup of Women in 2010, Flegel collaborated with Morgan Cook in the band Androgynous Mind, releasing the EP Nightstalker in 2012.[2] From there, the project evolved into Cindy Lee, which sees Flegel recording music primarily alone but continuing to perform with a rotating roster of supporting musicians.
Releases
The demo cassette Tatlashea was released in 2012,[3] followed by the full-length album Act of Tenderness in 2015.[4] Malenkost was released later the same year,[5] followed by a reissue of Act of Tenderness in 2018.[4]
What's Tonight to Eternity? was released in February 2020, with its lead single "Heavy Metal" a posthumous tribute to Flegel's former Women bandmate Chris Reimer.[6] The project's fifth album, Cat o' Nine Tails, followed in March 2020.[7]
In 2024, the project released the double album Diamond Jubilee.[8]
