Biography
Casting herself as a flighty, heart-on-sleeve singer songwriter, Judie Tzuke used layers of vocal harmonies to create some of the kookiest pop of the 1980s. Raised in Yorkshire by Polish parents who'd changed their surname to the more English sounding Myers, Judie took the family name Tzuke when she first started performing in folk clubs in the mid-1970s. She was signed up to Elton John's Rocket Records in 1977 and scored the Top 20 hit Stay With Me Till Dawn, taken from debut album Welcome To The Cruise (1979). Tzuke went on to tour with her label boss and reached Number 7 with her acclaimed second record Sportscar (1980), usually regarded as her finest work. I Am The Phoenix (1981) and Shoot The Moon (1982) also made the UK Top 20 and Tzuke became one of the few women to headline the Glastonbury Festival in 1982. In her later career she dabbled with electronica and wrote material for artists such as Gareth Gates, Morcheeba and Phixx, and still remains a lasting influence on the likes of Florence And The Machine, Bat For Lashes and Marina And The Diamonds.
