This London, England-based quartet, formed in 1994, are led by the stunning black lesbian singer Deborah 'Skin' (b. Brixton, London, England). After attending a furniture design course at Teesside Polytechnic in Middlesborough, she returned to the capital and started meeting musicians on the local circuit. Her original band was shelved for being too 'rockist', but she retained the services of bass player Cass and began rehearsing with Skunk Anansie (who also include Ace, guitar, and Mark Richardson, drums) in January 1994.
