Manda Rin

Amanda MacKinnon (born 22 March 1977), better known by her stage name Manda Rin, is a Scottish singer, artist and songwriter. She is the singer, drummer and keyboardist of the Scottish indie rock band Bis, later fronted the Kitchen and also released a solo album. She also co-hosted a radio show on BBC Scotland called Air.

Rin is the only person ever to appear in three of the line up rounds on Never Mind the Buzzcocks: twice on the original run on the BBC, and once on the revival on Sky. Her first appearance initially unaired; one of the contestants on the programme was Russell Brand who, shortly after taping, became embroiled in a tabloid row after leaving messages on the answerphone of Andrew Sachs for his radio programme, resulting in Brand being banned from the BBC.

Rin also co-wrote the American animated television series, The Powerpuff Girls, which she performed with Bis.
