90s indie star unrecognisable 26 years after band’s hit song and quitting fame for normal job

AT the turn of 2000, this girl group were being billed as the new B*Witched, storming the charts with their track, I Quit.

Their star appeared to be on the rise, with the four-piece girl band even landing a spot on the soundtrack of Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

However, after just one album, the band went their separate ways, but lead singer Jamie Benson is still focused on music 26 years later.

Now Jamie Benson Hosier, the lead singer has landed a spot teaching at Laine Theatre Arts' Junior Department – the same music school she learned her craft in.

It was while at Laine Theatre Arts that Jamie met bandmate Lisa Lister, setting into motion the band that would become Hepburn in 1997.

The band was completed by Beverly Fullen on drums, and Sarah Davies on bass.

Named after Audrey Hepburn, the band were signed to Columbia Records, releasing I Quit in 1999 – a song originally meant for Natalie Imbruglia.

In America, the band filmed a music video inspired by Buffy, performing in the local haunt The Bronze with clips featuring in their video.

It's rumoured they were meant to appear on the show, but it never came to fruition.

However, the band ran into trouble when drummer Beverly Fullen left the group in September 1999, and was then replaced twice.

By 2000, the group were dropped from their label after just one album, and decided to disband.

Jamie went on to release her own material to limited success, before switching gears and teaching.

She joined Laine Theatre Arts as part of the staff in December 2024.

Jamie is now married to Danny Hosier, a dancer who previously performed with Kylie Minogue, and who she met at the age of 16 when she first attended the school.

Together, they have three children.
