Mizz Kitty "The Wildcat from Wildwood"

Miz Kitty's true origins are an Appalachian mystery. She was discovered by missionaries who were hiking Gregory's Bald near the Cade's Cove National Park in the Smokey Mountains. The couple were surprised to discover the toddler, who was apparently living in a cave with several mountain lions. The missionaries brought her back to their home in the Wildwood Community of Blount County and attempted to give her a proper upbringing. The God fearing couple's efforts did little good to curb the animal instincts of the wildcat girl. She was prone to trouble, often being escorted home by the sheriff for hot rodding, lewd conduct, and intoxication form moonshine. Miz Kitty eventually ran away to shack up with a family of bootleggers , but even an endless supply of white lightnin could only hold her interest so long. She ran off to the big city of Knoxville, where she made a name for herself as a cage and shadowbox dancer in the wildest nightspots in town. She did a brief stint as a dominatrix and fetish performer, but yet again the law put an end to her fun. She founded White Lightnin Burlesque with hottest dames she met in the underbelly of Knoxville's Nightlife. The name is an homage to her forever drink of choice. Miz Kitty is guaranteed to make your gun smoke!

Siren Santina

Tennessee native, Siren Santina was "discovered" at the Sevier County Fair Hog Calling contest by a traveling talent scout and zarzuela enthusiast from Spain. He took her to Barcelona where she worked as a topless flamenco dancer to make ends meet. Noting her combined talents of hog calling and topless dancing, the talent scout offered Santina a role in a local production of Bizet's Carmen. Eventually she made her way through Europe's great opera houses, baritone by baritone. Santina moved back to Tennessee when she heard about the Grand Ole Opera. At her audition, she was given the nickname "Screamin' Demon" by a panel of cowboys who had a strange way of listening to music (with their hands over their ears). She was quite surprised to discover The Grand Ole OPRY had nothing to do with classical music and worked mercilessly to fight off depression after her failed audition. She was finally brought into White Lightnin Burlesque by Miz Kitty, who found her homeless and topless singing on a Nashville street corner.
