EnglanE - The One & Only! [NEW SONG UP!]

CLICK HERE TO GO TO MY PUREVOLUME.COM PROFILE!

I AM MY OWN WORST CRITIC, & I'M NEVER 100% HAPPY WITH ANYTHING I DO.

I was born on the beautiful Isle of Wight, on the 30th of September, 1982 and originally hail from Cowes.
I am half English, a quarter Filipino, and a quarter Spanish. I proudly support Spain in the football World Cup, and Euro games. BESAR MI CULO.
I have been Vegetarian for over 8 years, and was Vegan for a total of 3. People that are cruel to animals, in any way whatsoever, need to be TORTURED AND KILLED. Preferably on live TV.

I have great respect for the elderly, for they have seen and experienced things that we cannot even IMAGINE. They are the true heroes of this country, and it's about time they were treated as such!

I have been singing all my life, and writing songs since I was 13. I have a vast amount of gigging experience, and have played many over the years! I have fronted a number of various rock bands in which I also played guitar, but after finding myself playing it less and less, I grew comfortable in the knowledge that singing is my forte, and my main passion. Here are just a FEW examples of the extensive amount of my music-related work over the years, including a solo home recording - (Catscratch Backlash, in which I play everything - bass, guitar, and sing... My wonderful boyfriend Joe was kind enough to manipulate the drum machine) as well as two (rough!) songs with my old band, Escaping The Chase - 'COMFORT WOUNDS' & 'SIDE EFFECT' - and songs with my new band, Twin Beretta. - GIGGING NEXT YEAR, LOOK OUT FOR DATES!

Please note that these recordings are VERY rough, and recorded in just one or two takes as a rough guide for me and the band to follow, when we finally get round to recording them properly! Some songs were written and recorded in the same day, so you'll just have to deal with my bum notes, for now! ♥

I also LOVE acting, and starred in a short film called 'Pushing Daisies', which features 'Catscratch Backlash' in the soundtrack. CLICK HERE TO READ THE REVIEWS OF 'PUSHING DAISIES'!

I also landed my first lead role in a play called 'Bedroom Farce' by Alan Ayckbourn. You can read a short review of that, HERE.

I have appeared in many other plays, and another short film called 'Bleach' over the years, and very much hope to be able to do more acting in the future!

Any and all feedback and support is VERY much appreciated, so please let me know what you think of ANY of my work with a comment, a message, or by signing my guestbook! And if you haven't done so already, FEEL FREE TO ADD ME!
