Hines grew up in Australia and was inspired by her mother's success as a singer to follow a career in show business. Her earliest employment was as a backing vocalist for such artists as Kylie Minogue and Jimmy Barnes before she was approached by the band Rockmelons to provide vocals for several of their songs. Her collaboration with Rockmelons provided them with three consecutive hit singles - a cover version of the Bill Withers hit Ain't No Sunshine, the reggae inspired That Word L-O-V-E and the ballad It's Not Over 'Til It's Over. In 1992, entrepreneur Harry M. Miller signed Hines for the role of Mary Magdalene in a revival of the stage musical Jesus Christ Superstar. Miller had discovered and signed her mother Marcia twenty years earlier, and the role of Mary Magdalene had also been one of Marcia's early successes.

Her hit "It's Alright" was a contemporary dance track that contrasted sharply with her earlier Rockmelons performances, and it became one of the year's biggest hits in Australia. It also charted strongly in the United Kingdom two years later. Further hits such as I Like The Way followed however her career quickly lost its impetus. She attracted a wide audience and strong sales in Europe and Japan, and continued recording with sporadic successes such as her 1996 cover version of 10cc's I'm Not In Love and her 2000 cover of Grace Jones' Pull Up To The Bumper. Her attempts at breaking into the lucrative American market met with little success, with the exception of the 1998 dance track Joy which reached number 3 on the Billboard Magazine Club Chart.
