About Siren This WA all‐star band came together to perform a special one‐off set at Rockin' WA Day held at the Civic Hotel on June 2 2013 to honour Chrissy Amphlett who, sadly, lost her battle with breast cancer and multiple sclerosis on April 21 2013. We continue. Donna Greene has been at the forefront of female vocal performance and stage entertainment in WA for many years. Better known in recent years for her lead vocal and performance in Lady Zeppelin, Donna was invited to perform as Chrissy Amphlett in a one‐off show to celebrate Australian Rock on WA Day 2013. Donna decided early on that if the response to the first "Chrissy" show was strong enough, she would consider further shows. About Siren Three weeks after the first show, Donna was diagnosed with MS. About MS SIREN pays homage to our iconic Australian diva, the dearly departed Chrissy Amphlett (25 October 1959 –21 April 2013) and Divinyls, while "crusading for a cure" by raising awareness for Multiple Sclerosis. MS is a disease of the central nervous system which results in damage to myelin — a protective sheath surrounding the nerve fibers. When myelin is damaged this interferes with messages between the brain and other parts of the body. It is estimated that over 23,000 people in Australia have MS. An additional 1,000 Australians are diagnosed with MS every year, equating to approximately four people every working day. In Western Australia approximately 16 people are diagnosed with multiple sclerosis each month. 2.5 million people are living with MS worldwide. While there are preventative treatments available to try to help to stop the progression of MS, there is currently no known cure. Ongoing funding is required for scientific research to help to find a cure.
