The group sold over 10 million albums worldwide and produced hit songs such as “Moving On Up” and “Search for the Hero”.
As well as achieving great success with the band, who won Best British Dance Act at the BRITs in 1994 and 1995, she has also released two solo albums - ‘Proud’ in 2000, and ‘Close to a Miracle’ in 2006.
