About The Author

Skin is one of Britain’s leading and acclaimed rock singers. She is also a fashion icon, a renowned DJ, an actress and an activist.

Born and brought up in Brixton, South London, she rejected the safe haven of soul/R&B session singing by diving headlong into hardcore rock. Since she emerged in the mid ‘90s with Skunk Anansie, Skin has been a groundbreaking presence. As well as fronting one of the UK’s most successful underground bands, Skin is a multi-talented artist and she is currently producing solo Techno music and preparing for an up-and-coming movie role.
