Skin from Skunk Anansie is one of the most powerhouse women in rock.
In fact, scrap that, she's one of the most powerhouse performers, EVER.
Skunk Anansie built a dedicated cult following in the 90s with albums like Paranoid & Sunburnt (1995), Stoosh (1996) and Post Orgasmic Chill (1999). Their most formidable hits being "Weak", "Brazen- Weep" and "Hedonism - Just Because You Feel Good" which catapulted them to being a household name in the UK and through Europe.
They visited Australia in 1997, presented by Triple J, and were supported by K's Choice - remember them?!
Check out this live performance of their hit "Weak" from Pukkelpop Festival in 2013, where Skin literally walks out on top of the 100,000+ audience, then crowd surfs back to the stage. Goosebumps! What a legend.
