When Dorothee Pesch decides to become a Rock singer in the beginning of the 80es, she enteres a men ´s world. As one of the very first women she dares to step into a genre in which women were ment to be keen on male Rock stars until then.
And in which many guys are convinced that this has to be like that.
But Doro is not confused. She founds a band and follows her path. Step by step she fights against prejudices and barriers and soon gains first respect due to her convincing character.
End of the 80es she is, with her band Warlock, an internationally successful and respected artist. Many women model themselves on her and start their own Rock bands. Rock music with female voices has become ? thanks to Doro ? acceptable. Rock music no longer is a men ´s business.
Until today Doro, who is working under her own name "Doro" since the early 90es, enjoys biggest respect. Self-confident she has followed her career without losing her heartiness on the way. Her warrior soul has always been an important part of her thereby, as well as her modesty. Doro has never produced any scandals just to make people talk about her. During her touring days she leads a healthy life and is very much into fitness and Thai boxing. She loves to help the weak. 2005 she fight against the suffering of animals that are held for fur production with PETA.
Doro is a strong woman and she is friends with lots of other strong women such as the world boxing champion Regina Halmich. Though being strong she is a very emotional person. The death of her father around ten years ago still makes her sad. Still, she writes very personal songs about this topic. And not enough: through her, also hard Rock fans have learned that showing emotions does not mean being weak.
