The founding members of She-Dick were Miss Candi Shell, Miss Gloria Hole, Miss Annie Rex and the producer, Hans HandiKraft, who began toying with gender roles and creating electropop beats with hyper-sexual, gender-bending themes.[3] In July 2007, Rex left the band and Princess Persia joined.[4]

She-Dick opened for the gay rapper Cazwell at Minc Lounge,[5] a Dallas nightclub that hosts performances by artists such as Erykah Badu, Kaskade and DJ Tiesto.[3][6]
