Biography
Rachel Bolan (born James Richard Southworth; February 9, 1964), is an American musician, best known as the bassist and main songwriter of the metal band Skid Row.
His stage name 'Rachel' is a hybrid of his brother's name, Richard, and his grandfather's name, Manuel. 'Bolan' is a tribute to one of his childhood idols, T. Rex frontman Marc Bolan. In 1990, Bolan legally changed his name to Rachel Bolan Southworth.
