Alison Hinds, who is known as “the Queen of Soca,” was born in London, England to Barbadian parents in 1970. She moved with her mother back to Barbados after her parents separated when she was 11 years old. She was a contestant in the Richard Stoute Talent Contest in 1987 and finished in third place.

After she finished high school, she joined the band “Square One” as lead vocalist and became a popular artist in the Caribbean and within the Caribbean Diaspora. She made nine albums with the band between 1988 and 2001. She won the 1992 Barbados Song Contest with “Hold You in a Song,” a duet with John King. She also won the Road March in 1996 and 1997 and the Party Monarch competition in 1997. Following the birth of her daughter in 2004, she left the band but returned to the soca environment with her appearance in a remix of “Turn Me On,” a hit crossover tune by Kevin Lyttle.
