Sophie Ellis Bextor – the woman who carried our her Murder On The Dancefloor, is heading to Australia.

The porcelain-skinned British beauty will perform a special show featuring her greatest hits at Homesexual on Sunday, October 2 at Home The Venue.

The singer, songwriter, model and occasional DJ first came to prominence in the late 1990s, as the lead singer of the indie rock band Theaudience. After the group disbanded, Ellis-Bextor went solo, achieving widespread success in the early 2000s. Her music is a mixture of mainstream pop, disco, nu-disco, and 1980s electronic influences.

In 2000, Ellis-Bextor collaborated with Italian DJ Spiller on adding vocals to his then-instrumental club track Groovejet, her first recorded work since that with Theaudience. Groovejet (If This Ain’t Love) entered the UK charts at number one, just beating former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham on her first solo outing to the top spot.

In 2001, Ellis-Bextor released her debut album, Read My Lips. It reached number two on the UK charts and spawned four top-twenty hit singles.

Her rework of Cher’s Take Me Home reached number two, as did Murder on the Dancefloor, which became Ellis-Bextor’s biggest single and was on charts for twenty-three weeks.

Murder on the Dancefloor became Europe’s most played song of 2002 and Read My Lips was re-released that year with two new songs (and a live version of Groovejet) and Ellis-Bextor won the Recording Artist Award at that year’s Showbusiness Awards. Her third single, Get Over You/Move This Mountain, was released in June 2002 and reached number three. The fourth single, Music Gets the Best of Me, rose to number fourteen in December.
