Jennifer "Jenny" Lee Lindberg (born July 30, 1981) is an American musician, singer-songwriter and record producer, best known as the bassist of the indie rock band Warpaint.
Lindberg was born on July 30, 1981 in Elko, Nevada. She is the daughter of Sherry Sossamon, a nurse, and Todd Lindberg. She is the sister of actress and musician Shannyn Sossamon. Following their parents' divorce when Lindberg was only two, she and her sister were then raised by their mother, who married Randy Goldman, a salesman and manager of an auto dealership. Her maternal grandmother is of Hawaiian and Filipino descent, while the rest of her ancestry is English, German, Dutch,French, and Irish. Raised in Reno, Nevada, Lindberg relocated to Los Angeles, California as an adult.
Lindberg is married to English video artist Chris Cunningham.
Lindberg had a "chance encounter" with Emily Kokal during one of Sossamon's DJ sets soon after relocating to Los Angeles and formed Warpaint with her, Theresa Wayman and Sossamon on Valentine's Day 2004. Originally rehearsing and composing original material alone for 18 months, Warpaint then began performing regularly in Los Angeles and self-released their debut extended play, Exquisite Corpse, in August 2008.
Warpaint's debut studio album, The Fool, was released in October 2010 on Rough Trade Records following a number of line-up changes, including the recruitment of drummer Stella Mozgawa. The album was well received by critics and peaked at number 176 on the Billboard 200. The band's second eponymous studio album was released in January 2014 and featured Lindberg performing vocals on two tracks: "Disco//very" and "CC". Receiving favorable reviews and charting in several countries,Warpaint reached the top 10 on the UK Albums Chart,Irish Independent Albums Chart, and Billboard's Alternative, Independent and Tastemaker album charts.
