Salon Betty is an art rock band formed in Seattle during the early 90's by singer, songwriter, and performance artist, Betty X. The music is typically described as new wave or punk, but has been dubbed as "gothabilly," "death lounge" and "deathabilly" by the band's frontwoman. There were many musicians that rotated through the band during its time; Rob "Spike" MacKusick (Faith and Disease), Paul "Pablo Diablo" MacKusick, Brian Castillo "aka pFrenz-C" (Jarboe, In Gowan Ring), Raven Leigh (Legion Within), Ricky Ricardo, C. Barry Semple (Faith and Disease, The Swains) and Ty Pamfilof (Machina Candeo, Otto Pilate), among others.

Disbanded in 1997, Betty X went on to pursue a self-titled solo project. Reportedly one of the first bands to do a live show broadcast via the internet.
