Carla Azar

Career

Azar played drums on the first two albums by Ednaswap, a Los Angeles band known for the song "Torn", which was a hit for Natalie Imbruglia.

The band Autolux formed in 2001 in Los Angeles. She met Eugene Goreshter while writing the score for Accidental Death of an Anarchist, a play by Nobel Prize winner Dario Fo. She met Greg Edwards while he was playing in his previous band, Failure. In August 2000, Autolux made their debut, playing two shows at the Silverlake Lounge. On March 1, 2001, the band released a self-produced EP entitled Demonstration. It contained five songs recorded on an 8 track in their rehearsal space. After impressing record producer T Bone Burnett during a performance, Autolux signed to DMZ, a record label created by Burnett and the Coen Brothers.

In 2002, Azar and Josh Klinghoffer supported Vincent Gallo as his tour band in support of his album When. Besides drums, she played guitar and mellotron on the tour.

Azar played drums on The True False Identity (2005) by Burnett and Curtains (2005) by John Frusciante.

In May 2011, she began recording with Jack White on his first solo album, Blunderbuss. In 2012, she toured with White's touring band, The Peacocks.
