About Me

Blending pure b-girl terror with a deft musical touch, Thorn has been hailed by critics throughout Australasia and Europe as one of hip-hop's most promising talents.
Beginning her career in 1996, Thorn lent her talents to youth workshops as a dance coordinator and recording artist. She was also involved in Indigenous media as a television director and radio host. With a growing reputation as a ferocious liveperformer, 1997 saw Thorn head to Europe for a series successful shows across Italy, Germany and Switzerland where she was invited by platinum-selling Polygram artist La Pina to record vocals for her "Piovono Angel" album. While in Italy, Thorn also featured with DJ Gruff on his EP "II Suono Della Strada"and music video clip.
Since returning to Australia in 1998, Thorn has recorded with chart-topping R&B artists Kaylan (Warner Bros) as well as lending her unique vocal style to Mass MC's Triple-JJJ hit "BBQ Song," Thorn has also performed regularly in some of Australia's leading nightclubs including Embassy, Mr Goodbar, The Cave (Star City Casino) and Melbourne's Crown Casino, only taking time out to win the 2000 Big Day Out MC Battle and land lucrative support slots for visiting international acts such as King Kapisi, Souls of Mischief and Foreign Legion.
Thorn has worked with Mahalia Barnes and her R&B band Chill, both in the recording studio and on the live circuit. In addition, she has perfomed live with Australian rock legend Jimmy Barnes and has toured The Jimmy Barnes European Tour, 4 countries in 5 weeks: U.K, Ireland, Holland and Germany.
Thorn has also recorded 2 tracks with Kool Keith and Mark Live in Adelaide. Unrealeased.
