Caron Liza Geary (born 15 October 1963 in Paddington, London),[1] known by various stage names, is an English female raggamuffin toaster.
[10] She has subsequently worked as a solo artist and with other musicians, including Erasure and Boy George, who described her music as "the dirtiest 'slackest' reggae I'd heard since the seventies".
It was this precocious exposure to reggae music and Caribbean culture which inspired her to write in her inimitable style on early releases such as "Kipsey' and "Everything Starts with an 'E'" as part of E-Zee Possee, which was banned by the BBC because of its lyrics[citation needed][dubious – discuss] and initially made No.
It was this demo that Boy George turned into Generations of Love, which retained her bass line and keyboard melody.
[18] Descriptions of Geary's sound have varied from a "bass driven, vitriolic sonic hybrid of grimy electronic ragga, manic house and punk rock"[6] to a "white female raggamuffin toaster".
