Madame Mercury has always loved music and most things creative. Growing up in a hippie Rosicrucian/Free Mason/Christian community in San Francisco in the 1980s, creativity and thinking outside the box and connecting to Angels, spirits, God/Source were her world. As she grew up she embraced this curiosity and passion of following her heart and looking beyond the veil.
After attending a few underground dance events in 1996 she got her first pieces of vinyl of tracks that had truly touched her heart and got her first set of decks. Making a few mixes to carry these songs with her on her cassette player the mixes spread and after that things took on a path of their own. She started playing at local underground events in the San Francisco Bay Area and soon was signed to StreetBeat Records in Miami via her friend DJ Icey who saw how much the music truly touched her heart.
Following this came producing numerous singles, remixes and 3 mixed albums for various established indie record labels including her own indie Mad Wax label, all of it taking her across the U.S., to Canada, Europe, and Asia. She also created a residency with San Francisco’s beloved Spundae with her 5 Star Funk monthly at 1015 Folsom and always stayed true to her beloved hometown of San Francisco investing much of her love of the music locally by producing numerous events that nurtured the scene there.
Her sound brings that West Coast funky flavor to the classic beats, breaks, bass and samples of funky breaks and electro bringing them into a high energy hip hop meets house infused set guaranteed to make just about anyone want to move their body.
She has always been an artist who truly shows her deep passion for the music in all that she has done, always sober and in it for the love of the music and dancing.
Since aquiring her Masters of Science in Oriental Medicine, studying Shamanism and the Akashic Records and authoring her published Akashic Enlightenement book, answering her call to help others, her music and performances now taken on an even deeper and higher meaning and presence.
As we change and grow so do the expressions of our soul.
Peace. Love. Light. Joy. Unity.
