Playing with bands like Bikini Kill and Bratmobile, The Third Sex travelled across the country, performing in hundreds of local venues and building a large grassroots following.
The band's first, eponymous 7-inch[2] was released in 1995 on the Kill Rock Stars label, followed by their debut album Card Carryin[3] on Donna Dresch's Chainsaw Records in 1996.
In the wake of these releases, Third Sex started headlining their own shows, including performing many benefits for gay and lesbian youth clubs.
Sharylyn Menard joined on drums for the 1998 EP, "No Heart", for Kaia Wilson's Mr. Lady Records,[4] followed by second and final album Back To Go[5] on Chainsaw records, which was compared to Sleater-Kinney by reviewer Nitsuh Abebe.
