Skin, (born 3 August 1967, Brixton
, London
) is a singer and occasional model. As Deborah Dyer, Skin studied Interior Design at Teesside University in Middlesbrough and they later honoured her with an honourary degree. She is currently the lead vocalist of English band Skunk Anansie

who were a band often grouped as part of the britrock movement in the UK. Joining Skin in the line up for the band were Ace on guitar, Cass on bass guitar, and Mark on drums.
After forming in 1994, the band released three albums. Paranoid & Sunburnt, Stoosh
and Post Orgasmic Chill
sold over 4 million copies worldwide. They are best known for their single "Weak", but have had a series of other hits including "Charity", "Hedonism" and "Charlie Big Potato".
In 2001 the band decided to split. Ace released a solo album entitled Still Hungry, Mark became a replacement drummer for the band Feeder
and Skin went on to pursue a solo career.
In 2008 drummer Mark Richardson confirmed reports that the band was reforming in an interview with Drummer Magazine (2008, November Issue), and said that the band planned to release a 'Best Of' as well as new material.
On 2 and 3 April 2009, two shows took place at the Monto Water Rats (the former venue of the Splash Club) in London under the alias SCAM (Skin, Cass, Ace, Mark).
A greatest hits album, Smashes and Trashes
was also announced. The album includes three brand new tracks; "Because Of You", "Tear The Place Up" and "Squander". Videos of these new tracks are officially available on various sites.
After Skunk Anansie split, Skin released her debut solo album Fleshwounds
. The album was toned down from her Skunk Anansie days and did not gain the same acclaim from Skunk Anansie fans. She even ditched her trademark bald look and grew her hair into a boyish crop. While the album was not a massive success in the UK, two singles were released from it: "Trashed" and "Faithfulness". "Lost", a double A-Side with "Getting Away With It
", was a planned third single but was pulled shortly before release; promo CDs were sent out to radio stations but it received no airplay. Elsewhere in Europe the album's success was greater. For example, in Italy it peaked at Number 6 in the album chart, and in Germany at Number 18.
After releasing Fleshwounds, Skin went on to perform various solo gigs around Europe
. She was also support for the European leg of Robbie Williams'
and Placebo's
world tours.
Soon after touring she began to record her second album, Fake Chemical State
, which was released for sale on 20 March 2006, preceded by new single Just Let the Sun two weeks earlier. The first single actually issued from this album was Alone in My Room
, a download-only track released on 7 November 2005. 'Alone In My Room' was also the name given to Skin's first UK solo tour in two years, which commenced in Berlin
in November 2005. For this album she shaved her head bald again, returning to the look she had in her Skunk Anansie days.
Skin's next solo outing was a small promotional 'Fake Chemical State' tour. It started in Glasgow on 17 March 2006. She went onto perform many festivals around Europe including Rock Werchter
in Belgium
and the Southside
/Hurricane
festivals in Germany. She performed on the main stage at most of these festivals.
In February 2008 she announced that she was working with Timo Maas
and Martin Buttrich on a side project called "Format-3". Her 2008 song "Tear Down These Houses" was released as a part of the soundtrack to Parlami d'Amore, directed by Silvio Muccino
