Hulagirl is the stage name of singer / dancer Joyce (surname unknown) from Sint Michielsgestel in Brabant. She starts singing in the local church choir, but because she wants to become just as famous as her great examples Madonna, Neneh Cherry and Olivia Newton-John, she already participated in the TROS TV program Ministars at the age of seven. She comes into contact with the hula dance through her
… aunt, who lives in Hawaii. She soon forgot about Madonna and wears only straw skirts, floral wreaths and bras made of half coconuts. At the age of seventeen she is discovered by producer Addy van der Zwan, better known as DJ IttyBitty from Klubbheads. Together with Nico Verrips, he is further developing the Hulagirl concept. The aim is to reach a young audience with cheerful house music and fun dances. That works: the first single Sunqueen From Hula Bay has been in the Top 40 for almost six months and the successor Hands Up is also a hit. In addition, Hulagirl is allowed to perform at TMF, Top Of The Tops, Kindernet and Fox Kids. In addition to the two singles mentioned, the unnamed debut CD contains ten super commercial, bite-sized tunes with telling titles such as Hula All Over The World and Hulagirl Is A Happy Girl.
