Charlotte Birch

Charlotte Birch burst onto the scene back in 1996 after giving up a 10 year career in lingerie modelling to try out DJing. Within only a matter of months she became resident for Moneypenny’s and Decadence, playing funky house and club classics. In 1999 she radically changed her music style to hard dance and was snapped up as resident by the legendary Sundissential. She became one of the top female DJ’s in the UK. This has led to residencies at Slinky, Frisky, Roar and Dropzone and is a regular quest at most clubs in the UK including: Godskitchen, Polysexual, Frantic, Lashed, Hotdog and Virus. Since 2004 she hasn't release her own records, but still continues touring.

Links To Peel
As a fan of hard dance music, Peel was keen on the genre, particularly those that came out from the Bulletproof label, that had acts such as Charlotte Birch and Fallout Boy (not to be confused with the American emo band). The label regularly sent freebies to Peel. However it seems Charlotte Birch's Gladiator was the only record from her that got played on Peel's show.
