Olivia Newton Bundy in 1990

Brian Tutunick (born March 31, 1968), better known by his stage name Olivia Newton Bundy, is a musician. He was the bassist of the industrial metal band Marilyn Manson & the Spooky Kids. His stage name is formed from the names Olivia Newton-John and Ted Bundy.

Biography

In Manson's autobiography The Long Hard Road out of Hell he describes Speck as a "gawky," Acne teenager.

He was replaced by Gidget Gein at the bass later in 1990. After being replaced by Gein, Bundy went on to play bass for L.U.N.G.S. (subsequently renamed Collapsing Lungs, and renamed again to Lungs). They released an album called Colorblind in 1994.

In 1996 Brian along with notable DJ Grynch created a new band, Nation of Fear. They released the song "Immortal" on a compilation album for rock station 9.49 WZTA. Later that year Nation of Fear would release their well-received self-titled album on DiMar Records. They would go on tour with Genitorturers and even were even joined on tour by Lords of Acid. Nation of Fear (like their tour-mates) were known for stage antics including S&M, powertools, and pyrotechnic shows.

In 1998 Nation of Fear's second release Everything Beautiful Rusts, while receiving much more attention, failed to keep the band together and by 2000 they had broken up.

Bundy can now be seen on a weekly music show Feedback featured on the television channel PAX.
