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. Lucy O'Brien is a writer, academic and author of She Bop: The Definitive History of Women in Popular Music, Madonna: Like An Icon and in-depth biographies of Dusty Springfield and Annie Lennox. She has been a good friend of Skin's since 1995, going to countless Skunk Anansie shows and festival dates. Lucy was a judge for the Penderyn Music Book Prize, 2018. She was one of the few female staff writers for NME and has contributed to numerous titles including Q, Mojo, NME, the Sunday Times and the Guardian.
