Tina Weymouth (born Martina Michéle Weymouth on November 22, 1950 in Coronado, California) is a founding member of the influential post-punk group
Talking Heads. She is of French heritage on her mother's side. A bassist, she combined the minimalist art-punk basslines of groups such as
Wire and
Pere Ubu with danceable, disco inflected riffs to provide the bedrock of Talking Heads signature sound. Her sound is often very funky in feel, combining low fundamental notes with higher flourishes in clipped, staccato rhythms.
