Elizabeth made a brief move to the UK in the mid 90's and did vocal work for the London-based Kickin' and Slip'n'Slide record labels garnering her a top 10 hit with the house producers Boomshanka for the track "Gonna Make You Move". In the intervening years traveling between countries, she accumulated a great deal of studio experience in collaboration with various producers, a gold record, and numerous plaudits along the way. Settled again in the UK between 2005-2011, she began making some serious waves in the Dance music scene. Her vocal and writing talents can be heard on tracks for a diverse range of Club/Dance artists. She’s released 4 solo singles on European labels Reconnect, Envision, and Sound of Habib as Liz Melody and B. W. E. I., her somewhat darker production alias.
