Influences: I have been influenced by so many different types of music over the years that it makes it really difficult to list specific artists. Here are some of the more obvious famous ones:
ELO, The Beatles (John Lennon), All About Eve, Alanis Morrissette, Imogen Heap, Dido, Sheryl Crowe, The Mission, Pink Floyd, Hawkwind, Kate Bush, The Carpenters, The Corrs, Queen, Erasure, Madonna, Vangelis, REO Speedwagon and sooo many more!!....
And I have to give recognition to some of the not-so-famous musicians who have helped me along the way:
Bluejooz, Dean Jones, Dave Sharples, Phil Riddell, Darren Herring, Darren Wharton, Richard Barton, John Heath, Kev Carlton Jones, Ian Marshall, Greg MacDonald, Greg Foley, David Evans (MD), Trish Gaskell (MD), Andrew Griffiths (MD)
I also love musical theatre, traditional folk, classical and ethnic music and I think there are definitely traces of all these genres in my music. I love big harmonies and a full production and I love to mix live instruments with samples and synth sounds.Cyra Elia
