Hi, I'm looking to either join a 1950s/1960s, rock 'n' roll or swing covers band as a vocalist, or a country or Irish band as a vocalist/musician in the Bedford area.
I've played traditional Irish music on the tenor banjo and mandolin for nearly 20 years and have reached a high level, both national and internationally.
More recently I have performed as a vintage singer, performing to backing tracks. I've covered a wide range of genres/artists, from Connie Francis, Brenda Lee, Tammy Wynette, Patsy Cline to Susan Maugahn, Dusty Springfield and Helen Shapiro. I also perform at acoustic nights on guitar, covering a number of country, rhythm and blues and rock n roll numbers.
