Take a break from life and POWER UP.MADAM MISFIT and her CARNIVAL OF CHAOS [PROMO] Lincoln Friday 13th 2023Madam Misfit2023-10-18 | Step right up and witness the spectacle that is Madam Misfit’s Carnival of Chaos!
Our special show at SOUTHSIDE - LINCOLN took place FRIDAY 13th October to a SELL OUT audience.
MAGIC BALLMAN amazed you with their gravity defying flow art, FOOLHARDY BOYS were up to their usual antics taking things sky high and my favourite fool of all time BLIMEY CHARLIE with their silent yet rather beautiful show. Returning to the carnival for a second time was our favourite local duo SAFETY LAST SIDESHOW - "Velocity Bollocks" and her husband the "Indestructible Man" back after joining me at the premier in York. Not for the faint heart, this pair will leave you wanting more.
And of course, trying to control the chaos was everyones favourite ringmaster ADAM WASHINGTON and adding to the rollercoaster of an evening the one and only MADAM MISFIT.
A combination of sideshow and circus, Vaudeville and variety, music and magic, witty rhymes and conga lines, there’s never a dull moment in this world of wonder and excitement. So, what are you waiting for? Gather your friends and join the frenzy...

I've been robbed!
Following a tour of the West Country (UK) - 4 shows - 3 days and 900 miles After the final performance at The Obsidian Boscombe/Bournemouth 14th May 2023, it seems that once I had returned north to my home 6 hours away, itthen dawned on my that I was a suitcase short.
My case including my microphones and merch had been left behind and sadly, as per the video, its contents were taken.
Please if you can help by either sharing my story or donating to help me raise the funds to replace all the stolen gear it'd be greatly appreciated
Also, if you do see any of my belongings in the Boscombe/Bournemouth area or online then please use the Dorset Police Incident Number: SD-10492-23-5555-IR01

#madammisfit #patreon #chaphop #queenofchaphopSugar Rush [LIVE] Madam Misfit - Sci Fi WeekenderMadam Misfit2023-04-07 | Delighted to be bringing chaos to this years performance at Sci Fi Weekender
My first time on the main stage at Sci Fi Weekender after smashing my set in the smaller Space Port room in 2022.
Sugar Rush is my #1 streaming track on Spotify with over 330k on that platform alone so it was time I performed it live. Problem being, my ideas were a little too crazy - or so I thought.
Hurling marshmallows and haribo in to the audience ensuring my audience are as sugared up as I for a show
FYI/ Nets, and other collecting aids are handed out and we make sure the area is tidied post the song (so rock and roll)
My first time on the main stage at Sci Fi Weekender after smashing my set in the smaller Space Port room in 2022.
This time I wanted to blow the roof off the main void and decided the first outing of the peacock outfit was the perfect piece for this show combined with my longest conga to date.
"Skin You're In" is a song written to empower and encourage us to accept our bodies. Learning to love every wrinkle, every dimple - they all tell a story.
"pounds and inches, stones and grams - aren't what you use to measure confidence"
"Loving the Skin You're In" is becoming a staple message in my shows and being a part of my "Peacock promenade" (conga) is perfect way to celebrate body satisfaction.
Here at the British Aeronautical Piloting School I can take any individual and train them in to a fully fledged pilot - Quicker than one can say...

Madam Misfit’s Carnival of Chaos: From fire to feathers, swords to songs, our “Tigress in a Top Hat” has it all…
"You're my cherry on the top - my sweet delight - I drool at the mouth for just one bite of you Go on, a tiny slice - I won't tell if you don't - I can beg real nice!"
Now if that hasn't got you in a fluster then be prepared for the video
My semi erotic milkshake dance in order to whip you all in to a frenzy while massively geeking out on this actually being a remix from that Disney classic "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang"
And yes...many many calories were devoured during the filming of this - it was the best day EVER!!
Blended ever so beautifully by the one and only ODD CHAP with this smooth Swing Hop beat.
I wanted a track where the content was relatable to and instead of getting frustrated the next time you hear the old classic, to instead think of this little ditty.
HAPPY TO HOLD features on my brand new shiny album that is released NOVEMBER 21st with Electroswing Thing
Featuring the many frustrated voices of friends and fans as we chant together... WE WON'T STAND FOR THIS / SO, STOP TAKING THE PISS
Pandora's Box” is a ten- track album taking you on a musical journey from bass-driven jazz as heard in “The Grinch” through to a Swing-Hop remix of Mozart in “Happy to Hold”. The theme throughout is driven by her hypnotic positive vibes.
Alongside several brand-new tracks, the album brings on board some of Madam Misfit’s favourite singles from the past two years, such as “Skin You’re In” and “The Wombling Song”. Both have become anthems at her shows and were just as well received as her collaboration with fellow Electro Swing band “Victor and the Bully” with their haunting track “Trick or Treat” which made huge waves on Spotify for Spooky season.
On the production side, Madam Misfit has joined forces with Emma Clair, Odd Chap, Wolfgang Lohr, and many more of the finest producers in the Electro Swing universe, to “add to the chaos within” as she describes her inner world and work process.
Madam Misfit is well known for her charms, humour and quirkiness which never seize to help her express even more serious matters in a way that puts a big smile on one’s face.
So, no wonder “Skin You’re In”, the single that stands out the most and has ultimately moved her to release the album, is a soulful selflove anthem, that reminds you to accept yourself just the way you are, despite all the apparent flaws.
Promoting positivity and confidence through music is Madam Misfit’s entire vision behind this album she has gifted to us. Or to put it in her own words: “I present this gift to you I cannot be held responsible for the chaos that is about to be released”
With all this being said, the question on everyone’s lips must be: Who exactly is Madam Misfit? “She's a wild card, the black sheep, a freak, a weirdo, and you know.... I kinda like it that way!”
“Today is gonna be my day…!” Could there be any better way to approach life? Madam Misfit is back with a soulful reminder to celebrate yourself just the way you are and delivers a feel-good guide to navigate the highs and lows we’re all faced with on a regular basis.
“Head held high, back straight, we’re on cloud nine and feeling great”, the British tigress in a top hat never disappoints when it comes to delivering catchy tunes that will either make you grin, think or even both.
With “Skin You’re In” being her first release of 2022, she gives her listeners a taste of what to expect of her second album scheduled to drop later this year.
Stay tuned for the magic of Madam Misfit and get moving to this bop!
The extraordinary, the peculiar, the misunderstood and the “can’t quite put my finger on it” add a beat and a belly full of laughs and this is what you get!
Standing strong for all the misfits of the world, Madam Misfit is an advocate for fellow red heads.
Her music focuses on embracing diversity and empowering her audiences to be a True You" and embrace the "Skin You're In"
She is into her third year now as an established artist and there's no stopping her. With her debut album “Elixir of Swing” storming its way into peoples hearts, she's back with more toe tapping delights later this year with her follow up album - watch this space.
She has also collaborated with artists such as Wolfgang Lohr, Professor Elemental, Riff Kitten and producers such as Odd Chap and Emma Clair, also releasing a track with kings of Electro swing Bart & Baker.
Her musical genre ranges from Electroswing to Chap Hop, with her comical rap lyrics gradually becoming her identity within the music industry and many festivals across the UK.
From small and private parties through to main stage festivals - Madam Misfit is sure to get an audience in the mood
Yes it's very different from my typical bass heavy electroswing chaphop tracks however... I do like to keep you all on your toes!
A bit of swinging dixie clarinet twinned with my usually witty lyrics, filmed in the glorious "Kinema in the Woods - Woodhall Spa" with a special guest performance by Mr Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq!
A couple of reasons why this track is so special to me Firstly, I wrote the entire thing, the chords, the words the rhythm, the style - everything Most of my music I find samples and blend, mix or ask producers to create in the style of But this little baby was all me!
Secondly, it features on the latest Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq album - "Making Friends at 40"! After featuring on Tom's track "Let's try to turn it on" it was Tom's turn to guest on my track - anyway - he loved it so much, well - you know the rest!
LYRICS:
Somethings in life are hard, I just don't know where to start So I decide to stick to what I know But that just ain't the way In this modern age and day And there for this is what my friends all have to say! (We have to say)
CHORUS That's why you can't teach an old dog new tricks 'Cos if it's not broke then it don't need to be fixed Stuck in my ways, some say I'm strange But I just ain't a fan of change That's why you Can't teach an old dog new tricks
Now then, folk call me fashionable But this old thing's smart casual Too sentimental nothing goes to waste Stop caring what you're wearing Go bold, go bright, go daring! I've been wearing these since 1998
Call me a traditionalist of sorts I'd win if it were a sport 'Cos I'm the very best at being me! A leopard changes spots, more often than my socks Never too old to learn Now then we shall see! (Now we shall see!)
CHORUS
INSTR
Now then, where was I? The world wide web is just one big hole An eternity to find that discount code The box at checkout means that one exists! I won't give up, it's just not me Feeling cheated of free delivery My friends think I should just resist and quit! (Yes you should quit!)
I'll make it known I do enjoy my sleep To snooze before 9 feel such a treat The simple cure for when I'm feeling blue But it takes a fraction of distraction From some good old Netflix action And I realise to my surprise That the clock – Is chiming 2
CHORUS
Now then, where was I? Procrastination is my final flaw My mind feels the need to explore Writing lists I just dismiss so easily See a nice big shiny thing and... Oh, oh hello – it's been so long hasn't it Oh – where was I?
CHORUS
And again now CHORUS
A huge thanks to - Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq - Banjolele, Main and Backing Vocals - Tom Carradine - Piano and Backing Vocals - Kate Tucker - For her fabulous filming skills (and generally putting up with me!)
It's that time of the year where things start to get a little spooky, and I'm hoping that my new release has ticked that box with my brand new collaboration with fellow Steampunk artists “Victor and the Bully"
Halloween 2020 saw us both release equally spooky tracks, “Feels a Little Strange” is still one of my most streamed tracks and VATB were welcomed with their first release on to Electroswing Thing label with “Heebie Jeebies”, a huge hit for their big fan base.
With the bar set high for us both to better our previous spine tingling tracks we decided what better than to join forces to release “TRICK OR TREAT”.
Toe tapping bass lines, ghostly riffs and close harmonies teamed with Victor Ghastly's production and vocals, we know that this is a Halloween track right from the off. #TRICKORTREAT

I am so proud to have a track on this album amongst some of the HUGE names
"Don't Girl" is a little more serious than what most of my followers know me for, but it's still full of fire and passion, a heavy bass line and some epic Latino trumpet
I'm so excited to share with you my wonderful cover of the 80s children's TV theme tune to the series - The Wombles
It's been in my mind for so long now and I felt the time was right! Never before has there been such a focus on the damage our waste is doing to the world and who better to help me on this mission to "REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE, REPEAT" none other than Orinoco and the wise words of David Attenborough.
So come, join me and my fellow Wombles to "CLEAN UP OUR STREETS" and help make this world a more friendly place for the future.

This neo/electro swing battle was organized by four artists: two young and hot dancers – The Neoswing Kid from UK and Ess Hachi from Japan, and two electro swing artists – Madam Misfit from UK and Crazy Red Balls from Spain. Hope you like the format! Write about that in comments ;)
Encompassing an array of styles, the track taps in to electro swing, neo swing, hip hop and rap. Tagged as the first female chap hop artist, Madam Misfit delivers her familiar rap verse twinned with the music and lyrics by the face behind Crazy Red Balls – Vladimir Uspenskii.
The track opens with a toe tapping catchy beat and is joined with humorous discussion from the duo about how streaming giant “Spotify” will place them. During the chorus we find out that the earnings from Spotify will be enough to buy a lollipop.
Please support both artists on this “Crazy” collaboration so they can buy a couple of lollipops each! 😉
LYRICS Are you sitting comfortably my dear? Then I shall begin To tell a tale, hold on tight - there's room for you Hop in! Madam Misfit – I'm pleased to meet you A nice firm handshake – don't be scared I wont eat you! Where are my manners how rude A beverage perhaps – tea freshly brewed Now – that's better – hits the spot Perhaps something wetter?
Dear God, I forgot teas partner in crime A brew without a biscuit there should be a fine BUT THEY'RE MINE! You should've brought your own Arriving unannounced IM SO ALONE I drink so much tea My freckles are the leaves Stewed within me I have to admit I'm a little TEA DRUNK In fact an addict
CHORUS
Mmmm, now you are a nice chap so nice you can have my biscuit in fact Go on – reach in a crumbly dream We could share like those two dogs In that spaghetti scene – and as our eyes meet We could savour this moment and our sugary treat Now isn't this fun Not awkward at all – I SHOULD MEET YOUR MUM! AAHHH That's it, i've blown it Trying to be cool – its ok just own it! Sooo – you come here often? You live here you fool or have you forgotten? Please mind the chaos And ignore the audience – they just came with the place ODD Now where's my cup This is going splendid and I need a top up!
CHORUS
My strongest blend form the seven seas Especially for guests whom like to tease LIKE YOU Looking oh so splendid – you came highly recommended Now sip it up Be a good sport – don't spill a drop Intoxication is the key to any relation Just keep them topped up and increase flirtation
Sniff – isn't this great Like hatters tea party but without the cake Wait! Now let me see You're stone bloody sober – how can this be? It's never happened before Occasionally premature but never not at all The only explanation it would seem That you've cheated on tea with coffee bean!
"The Unsung Heroes" - referring to musicians and creative folk
So take this as either spoken word, rap or just the ramblings of a fed up woman
Absorb, support, just don't ignore
LYRICS
Calling all musicians and creative types Standing strong, feeling wrong, just trying to fight for our right - Not just to party, that's just the start see It goes much deeper than that, into your hearts so free!
Because music is inside of each one us Whether you make it, fake it or take it - it's in our blood Because...
It's a healer, aiding dreamers and believers, love seekers, thrill seekers Hard working school teachers!
It's the friend that we turn to when the shit ain't going right Just imagine a day without music in our lives IT'S SHITE!
But we get no recognition Of our jobs description Train to be an electrician? NO - Music is my ADDICTION!
So we slog on and stay strong Writing song after song Signing our music to the stream giants Cant quite contain the excitement Gonna start my retirement Rolling in the money from music requirements
But I wake up Gotta shake up And face the reality that I might just break up!
Seeing the pennies slowly enter my account And knowing the hours that I've spent It makes me just wanna SHOUT!
See being a creative, folk this it's just for fun And yes, making bad ass beats is second to none! But when you get asked if you can come and gig There's no budget but the experience will make you "really big"
It really winds me up It grinds me up Why should I work for FREE? If you were a builder, wanting silver You'd get paid in money!
But if you'd rather go "SWAPSEYS" Then yeh that suits me! I'll do you that gig that'll make me so big If you extend my two bed to three!
We're THE UNSUNG HEROES - the pick you up you need When your mood is at ZERO - and your mind needs to be freed!
So when "THIS" is all over And we're back up on a stage Come support us - don't ignore us It works both ways
Because without you - an audience That's where we get our kicks The conformation, of elation That our music ain't so SHIT!
Its been a rather hard 12 months for us all - and we really hope that this little mix helps put a smile on your faces once again lyrics CHORUS Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf The Big Bad Wolf - The Big Bad Wolf Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf Tra la la la laaa
Excuse me Madam, do you have a moment? See I can't ask for help as though COVID has thrown me It's hard to be hopeful when the world is so stony Exposed without purpose – I'm broken and lonely!
And just breath - I agree with you totally We're in this together, not just here – but globally! Hold onto those dreams and they'll steer you slowly And keep you on course from being broke and lonely
I have an itch – that just can't be scratched Stuck in a ditch, claustrophobic and feeling trapped! Negative, too sensitive, got to watch my back from Prejudice – for being a woman in rap!
Yes that is SHIT – sadly it's a matter of fact That this rapping can be sexist it's a balancing act If you're a lyricist - who isn't scantily clad You need to be better than a man to get a pat on the back!
CHORUS
If I take a step back and examine you Frame my fingers round you face and then examine you A ball of energy, it's plain to see, infectious and true Your positive vibes, hypnotise and help guide folks through!
Well let me just say you're incredibly ACE You've got a style of your own, you've got excellent taste! Intelligence, grace, sense of purpose and rage I'm ever so proud to even call you a mate!
So when life is combustible or barely functional You come to me and I'll give you comfort food Make it more colourful, giggle or comfort you We're all a mess but we're all sort of WONDERFULL!
In these strange times, you'll be fine and muddle through Prioritise, BE WISE when feeling blue Confide, don't hide, it's OK that you've cried And look to the future – set your gear to DRIVE!
It's been sat pretty quietly for a year or so but seeing the benefits of FEE FREE FRIDAY (ahem - that's today) I thought I'd better get in on the action!
BANDCAMP is a wonderful platform where individuals can purchase music directly from the artist and are therefore able to plough those earnings straight back into making more music and merch!
Even more so on FEE FREE FRIDAY (first Friday of every month) no commission is taken so 100% of earnings goes directly to us the artists!
I urge you to not only look at my 3 very shiny tracks but also all the other wonderful amazing artists that feature too!
So I thought it was about time I got my act together and began writing bespoke verses for you all!
Now these can be for you, a loved one, a pet - well anyone really who you think would appreciate this little bit of bespoke Misfit merch with prices starting from £60.
The fresh verse can be sent out as a glorious video and forwarded to all whom you wish to share it with - or it can be part of some beautiful and new Misfit artwork available in a vast array of sizes!
