I am a musician, producer and DJ from Vancouver, BC. Over the past decade I have been writing, producing and performing in my band Top Less Gay Love Tekno Party and collaborating with DIY HIFI and Bear Mountain.  Previous releases include: Alotta Miata, Top Less Gay Love Tekno Party, Sunset, Atembe, Back and Forth, On My Own, Can't Stand To Lose (Donné Remix), Asleep on the Bus (Topless Gay Love Tekno Party Remix) Her music has also been featured on Outliers.

I take influence from both past and present. Born in South Africa, I grew up listening to Ladysmith Black Mambazo and The Boyoboy boys as well as other music coming out of Soweto in the 1980's. My youth was spent on the west coast of Canada, immersed in 1960’s soul, R&B, hip hop and indie music. Currently likened to The XX, Feist and The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, my vocals were once referred to as “shades of Kate Bush and Karen O, lilting and wistful arriving to play on the horizon like a wild deer at first light”.
