people much like other forces in the Universe. Kizzy says she prefers herself
onstage to herself offstage, which surprised me at first as she seems wonderfully
personable offstage. When you hear her perform, though, when she releases her
huge, rich voice and lets it run free you can kind of see why. If she was like that
offstage it would be overpowering.
The variety of styles catered for at Studio 7 reflects Kizzys own career, which has
included working with Prince, The Shamen and Take That, among others. Kizzy
remains a busy woman, singing with three different projects and running Lakota.
She also recently worked as broadcaster on Commonwealth FM. Yet she still finds
time for the twice weekly Studio 7 as well as many other occasional music workshops, which often involve working with those with special needs. Such devotion
to Music provision is partly because Kizzy believes strongly that music should play
a far more integral part of peoples education. There is academic learning and
creative or spiritual learning. Music falls in the later category, and some people
simply respond better to that kind of teaching. When I was taking my law degree,
I learned all my case law by singing it out loud. Music can play a far greater role
in educating young people than most give it credit for.

Kizzy and her band will be playing The Fleece, Bristol, on February the 13th.
