ABOUT
I have been involved with music from a very early age, with a natural ability to be flexible and to adapt to the 'feel' of the music/project i am working on. Would love to do more funk, R & B. Reggae
I am looking to become involved with exciting projects that will increase my diversity and for full potential to be discovered. I am involved in a tribute act as Gladys Knight at the moment, we will be adding other black femaale singers to our list soon. see thethreetones.co.uk
My preference is working with live, competent musicians, my first love being jazz and blues but really I am happy to take on any challenge given!
If you are interested then please do get in touch with me as soon as you have read this.
