Influences: Anything and everything! I'm a huge music fan so my influences vary by the second. Some my vocal influences are: Eva Cassidy, Ella Fitzgerald, Norma Winstone, Tina May, Idina Menzel, Megan Mullally, Pink, Diana Krall, Sarah Vaughan, Stacey Kent, Miles Davis, Anita O'Day, Lauren Kennedy, Harry Connick Jr, Pete Churchill, Nicki Illes, Damian Rice and Sarah McLachlan. *** Some of my writing influences stem from the world of theatre and include: Jason Robert Brown, Alan Menken, Lynn Arhens, Charles Miller, Andrew Lippa and Stephen Schwartz to name but a few.***But of course my biggest influences are just some of the amazing people I am lucky enough to have in my life! They are my support and my heros and without them I wouldn't be where I am today! From my beautiful god daughter and nephew, to my best girly friends, they are always there for me! But my biggest support and influences are my students and the 4 men in my life!!! Aslan, Mr. Way and my amazing burger boy! You mean the world to me and without you I couldn't be who I am today!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all you do for me, from the late night messgaes through to Firth watch and every other little sitch!!!! I love you guys more than anything! And the last, but most important!! My Nick!!! Without you there would be no music, no lyrics and no soul!! Thank you!
