Jodie Harsh looks back: ‘My goal was to be different, to be anything but normal’

Jodie Harsh is a DJ, club promoter, drag queen and recording artist. Born in Canterbury, Kent, in 1985, she moved to London at the age of 18 to study at the London College of Fashion. It was there she first appeared as Jodie Harsh and was quickly swept away by the city’s drag scene.

Having produced and remixed music for a decade, she is working on her own original songs. Her new single, Hectic, is out now.
