 Pierson's first venture was in the music industry working as a singer/songwriter with record company EMI. Her group Gouge, achieved a top twenty single in LA.. 

 Apart from this single self-promoting trumpery (From the fashion world? Surely not.) that is being passed off as a reliable source there is no mention of Gouge anywhere.  Such ""hits"" are invariably milked on successive compilations over the years, have some currency on eBay, can be found on iTunes or Spotify, or get a mention on a fan's blog. I have found nothing.  I leave it here in case someone comes up with a worthwhile reliable source or two.    "
