About Me


Elayne Smith is well known for her broadcasting and club Djing work. Elayne’s Dj work has seen her play at the ‘Cotton Club’ and ‘String Fellows’, and was the first woman to present a radio Breakfast show in London.

Elayne co-devised and presented ITV and Channel Four’s hit talent search series the ‘291 Club’, which unearthed Skunk Anansi and Eternal amongst others.

Elayne has also tutored under 18’s in presentation skills, vocal training, and stage production. Her passion for new talent secured her the Urban Music A+R Management post at EMI Records making her the first woman ever in England to work in that position.

To add yet another achievement to Elayne’s list of credits, she made her acting debut at the Hackney Empire in a play called “The Wife, the Baby Mother and The Woman in the Dark”

Elayne is an accomplished presenter for both radio and television – BBC’s “Top of the Pops”, LWT’s “291 Club”, Channel 4’s “Search for a Star”, BSB for “Rage”, “Chart Show, and “Global Juke Box”, and Choice FM’s “Early Morning Breakfast Show”.

Owner of the Elayne Smith Hair Boutique, Elayne is also Ambassador for ‘BASS’ (British Association of Sound Systems).
