Dance through the darkness, towards the light
Human honesty • lifelong health struggles • HOPE
Music written primarily from a health perspective (both mental and physical)
to uplift, connect and resonate
with humans navigating their way through all sorts of madness in this fast-pace life

MUSIC STORY
Keys were age 5. Guitar and drums came later - the latter entirely unexpectedly. Music was my entire life, probably because it became my escape from constant suffering.
But somehow… I walked away from Mad Musical Me, the real me, in favour of a bog-standard, boring professional life. A complete facade, in hindsight.
In 2025, I had only just begun reclaiming a decent quality of life again health-wise with post-vac issues sending me spiralling all over again (THANK YOU, Funky Med). My brother then randomly sat me down at a drum kit.
What followed was completely unexpected. There was maddening grief. Some tiny relief. Then an almost primal addiction to music again - a bit like a genuine need for water. My brand new husband (and partner of 14 years) had to hide my drumsticks for this crazy gal he’s never known!
Rebuilding my skill level has been, and still is, a bit tough. I was once a Grade 8 pianist, and returning after so many years felt like fighting against something wildly rigid. But eventually, once comfort returned, I stopped trying to become as good as I once was.
And finally I started doing what I had always wanted from the beginning:
CREATING!
LIFE STORY
By age 6, I was getting a raft of medical diagnoses (and misdiagnoses, may I add) in modern medicine (NHS, in the UK).
I was on 10+ pharmaceutical drugs (and apparently that was ok). My attendance at school was never more than 37%. I did suffer a lot as a little kid, even if just the outpatient stuff.
And just as I managed to regain my health with my root-cause brain as an adult (THANK YOU, Funky Med), I suffered post-vac issues which sent my health spiralling off a cliff edge in entirely new, horrific ways - the original trips to A&E ended up being the least of my worries.
I hope to at least bring HOPE, both from my perspective as a patient and sufferer, but in time, as clinician too, where I hear real stories from real humans, daily. But I also see healing. It’s beautiful. It’s HOPEful.
If it’s you too, you’re not alone. I want to bring you hope.
Hope; the name of my best friend who I lost at age 12 - to what I now know to have been an unnecessary and avoidable surgery.
MUSIC VIBES
I don’t think there is a genre!
I was a classically-trained pianist…
I was a metal drummer… (I promise I won’t be making metal)
Lover of groovey/funky/dancey/bluesy/jazzy/house-y/rocky-NESS - what could possibly go wrong?!
ARTIST BIO
After 15 years away from her music - living in a world of “musical teetotal” while continuing to navigate her lifelong health struggles - Blondie B returned explosively in 2025 with renewed addiction for rhythm and raw truth. After health issues were finally resolved (in her words, “Thank you, Funky Med”), she has grieved the unintentional loss of the artist she was always meant to be.
A pianist, guitarist, drummer and newly-embraced vocalist/songwriter, Blondie B blends genre influences into something emotionally unfiltered, groove-driven and (hopefully!) impossible to sit still to.
Drawing inspiration from the avant-garde genius of Jimmy Sullivan, the jazz-fusion energy of Jamiroquai, the groovy rock of Red Hot Chili Peppers, the electro-swing theatrics of Caravan Palace and the underground house pulse of Derrick Carter, her music moves between Phrygian darkness, dance-floor momentum and deeply personal storytelling.
Every song begins on piano - a tribute to her fallen idol and teacher - before evolving into layered, genre-bending productions built entirely from lived experience. Her writing contains “0 Fiction”: each lyric reflect real truth, from physical & mental health, through to social pressures and obligations, to narcissism and many things in-between.
Having performed in bands, orchestras and studio environments until age 19 where her hiatus sadly began, Blondie B now records independently while building her first collection of original material. Her sound combines uplifting, butt-wiggling grooves with darker emotional undertones, in attempt to balance catharsis and celebration.
The result is music that feels soulful, danceable, yet raw and human in a world where we have lost what that means. Songs to make butts wiggle while refusing to hide the truth underneath.
