Hey guys!!
Sorry I haven't posted for a while, it's been a bit mad with getting a new job etc (you know how life is)
I have done a few things recently had our Igloo annual showcase in March and it was soo good singing "Don't walk away" with a band :) was a great showcase and everyone was fantastic!!
Had my photshoot with BGM in April which was awesome!! got some great pics!
Got over 100 likes on my FB music page now so thanks guys!!
Recently had my fav weekend "Ashcon" which is a convention for all the amazing Wishbone Ash fans! Friday 1st Nov was amazing as I opened up the friday night in the county bar (Chesterfield) with a 30 min set, this set included 2 of my own "baby come home" and "wanna show you". The great Andy Powell, Bob Skeat and Muddy (from WA) were also there which made it even better as it's usually us watching them :) I then got asked to do some backing vocals with the band "strange affair" which was fun and they also asked me to sing with them on the sat afternoon on the main stage in the "Winding Wheel" before Wishbone Ash come and do a set so as you can imagine I was very honoured to have been asked and had a great time and got amazing comments from some of the audience!
I am now rehearsing for various xmas shows coming up which is always fun! I am doing a duet this year and performing in the Casino :)
My new years resolution is to make sure I write a few more songs next year and play my guitar more!! So watch this space :)
Have a great Christmas all!!!
Mwah xx

I received an email on 3rd Jan inviting me to an audition with BGM record company. This was the result of being recognized when I was doing Open Mic UK. This was very exciting that someone had spotted me and liked what they saw so mention me to the record company. After arranging with them my audition was to be at 12pm on the 18th Jan in London! After having a very bad morning with everything possible going round (which included missing the train I was meant to get) Dielle (singing coach) and I... Continue reading...

Well what can I say, I have not updated this in a long time!! a lot has been going on in the last 6 months or so. Firsty I entered a big UK Competition called "Open Mic UK".
1st AuditionI was very nervous, had to sing in front of about 6 or 7 judges, and there was around 5 singers on stage and we basically sang down the line after being asked by 1 of the judges who we were and what we were going to sing. We had to sing acapella which is sometimes difficult as you have to make sure your timing i... Continue reading...

Well lots of things have changed in my life in the last 6 months, so I have not done much to do with my singing, but I have started going back to my vocal fitness classes. First lesson back we were learning about accent method.The Accent Method is to develop and strengthen the normal functions of the voice thereby giving the speaker, singer or patient a secure foundation for voice use. This included making some very funny noises and having a bit of a giggle but seriously it does help with the ... Continue reading...
