?If I had a quid for every time I?d read that iZZiE Voodoo music is computer sequenced synth pop, I?d

have flashier cars in an ever expanding drive? says iZZiE, ?but the truth of the matter is that there are

almost as many tracks devoted to live guitars, basses and keyboard parts in almost every song as

there are sequenced computer sounds, it?s the effects that get them mistaken as such?.

So that established- who are we to argue? With the launch of her new album, ?The Push? at the end

of July, iZZiE?s music has had every conceivable label attached to it, from dark electronica, through

pop, new rave and electro clash to industrial and goth, and has been loosely compared to Goldfrapp,

Massive Attack, Depeche Mode, Sparks, Siouxsie Sioux and Hawkwind, but the one thing repeated

time and time again is that you will be singing it?s award winning catchy hooks to yourself for days,

hypnotised by it?s pulsating beats on ?every off the wall, menacing, exhilarating, infectious

track?(www.badrobot.co.uk).'..the result is slinky, willful and could appeal to nu-ravers as much as

strong women.' (The Sheffield Star)

iZZiE, (a high grade Kick Boxer/Martial Artist who trained from the age of 4 in various forms of

dance, and both on-stage and back-stage theatrics,) is a self confessed control freak and in the

driving seat of everything studio here including writing, recording, vocals, live instruments and

engineering. She approaches her live gigs with the confidence, attitude and verve that you might

expect from a girl with such background. ?Standard gigs are very, very dull.? she says to the Sheffield

Star ?I grew up doing stage work and productions with lights and make up and costumes and totally

mad theatrical people, so 4 boring looking blokes wearing boring t shirts and boring jeans just doesn't

yank my chain. I know you're really there for the music but you'd just as well go for a run and listen to

it on your iPod.?

So accompanied by her equally tight live band from Sheffield ( Lawrence Mahmood - on Bass Guitar

(ex Dirty Earbash and Bix Downer collaborator) and Zell Taylor, a zoologist with a great voice on

back up vocals and keyboards,) izzie commands her audience through dry ice, note perfect and

donning occasional guitar and keyboard parts in tantalising PVC dance gear, plying them further

occasionally with free lollipops- 'and no', she concludes,' we don't have a drummer'.

In 2007, izzie Voodoo was named finalist in Song Of The Year for her song ?Sound? (featured on ?The

Push?), picked by some of the biggest names in music including Grammy Award winners and in

October 2007, izzie excitedly announced her signing to Northampton based label, Basilica Music Ltd.
