The first female MC ever, to have a show on Kool FM, going back as early as the mid-nineties was the first female to win the Kool Skool MC competition and one of the first Female MC’s in Jungle D&B period. Kool FM has been instrumental in this woman’s career in Drum & Bass.Meet Indigo Reign. Who? Well, if you've been around the jungle and drum & bass scene any time over the last three decades, you'll know her by the name Lady MC. After all, she was one of the very few women to make it onto line-ups in the testosterone-heavy world of nineties rave emceeing so she was hard to miss. If you heard a woman's voice on a DnB tape pack back in the day, there's a very good chance it was her. Even that would be legacy enough, given the doors she helped open for todays generation of female artists, but that's just the beginning.And, anyway, that was Lady MC, the rough-hewn, dance-hyping, gun-finger brandishing spitter, born in the rave and trained on the stage. That's a previous incarnation. Indigo Reign takes things to a whole new level, taking those years of experience and alchemically transmuting them into brand-new possibilities.She toured with hip-hop royalty like Afrika Bambaataa and Kool Herc. She fronted the live DnB band Dust 21. She played on a roll-call of the most iconic stages in the scene; from the rough, rugged, and raw Telepathy and Hysteria, to Let it Roll, to the soulfulness of Spearhead and Hospitality and among her many awards picked up the Lifetime Achievement Award 2020 (D&B Awards).A pioneering artist and activist is writing the next chapter of their story, powered by nearly thirty years of hard-won experience and carrying a powerful message, and you can catch a slice of her energy, every first Saturday of the month for your listening pleasure.

London Youth Accredited GOLD Quality Marked, Award-Winning charity was founded and established by an award-winning artist also known as Lady MC (me), through a passion for the arts combined with a desire to work with young people. Quality assured as one of the top 25 youth organisations in the UK.I set up YUAF because I was one of those challenged young people growing up due to my childhood experiences, music saved my life and I wanted to use my life experience to empower the lives of young people so they are seen, heard and celebrated. We deliver face to face outreach on our single decker music bus, online courses and masterclasses, and our pathways service to build confidence, wellbeing and opportunities.

Way too much to include in a paragraph! Pretty much all round go getter to make everything happen!

As an artist and a women business owner, I have experienced a whole books worth of inspiring stories, from childhood (and the road that leads to) being a female in a male dominated scene, setting up businesses, managing young taken, touring the states, experiencing parental suicide, losing a business and starting again from scratch and so much more exciting experiences that has moulded me into the woman that I am. Like many successful entrepreneurs, these experiences had to be created in order to be shared through thought provoking presentations and workshops to inspire those wishing to aspire.Please contact if you are interested in booking a talk.
