Klaus Nomi (1944 – 1983) was a German countertenor noted for his wide vocal range and an unusual, otherworldly stage persona. In the late 1970s Nomi assembled a group of up-and-coming models, singers, artists, and musicians to perform live with him, which at times included Joey Arias, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, John Sex and Kenny Scarf. Naomi was considered an important part of the 1980s East Village scene, which was a hotbed of development for punk rock, music, the visual arts and the avant-garde (wiki).
