About Me
Well I started performing at the age of three, and it has been hard to keep me off the stage ever since! My influences include Aretha Franklin, John Legend, James Brown, anyone that can belt it from the soul!
I have performed on some pretty big stages and have traveled some too. I performed on my first big TV show in England at aged 6yrs, singing Stupid Cupid and dancing with an interview for the Prime time 'Micheal Barrymore show', Other TV appearances followed.
At 7yrs, I landed my first West End musical appearing as 'little Cosette' in Les Miserables (for the London Royal Shakespear Theater Company). In between time I acted and modeled, taking part in Big Fashion Shows across Europe, with various TV shows, commercials, music videos etc.By nine years old I was off to America (first stop Nashville Music City!) I can't begin to say what a huge influence that experience was for my music and Life! I met some of the best musicians and songwriters in that town, and I paid my dues on lower Broadway. I was heading my own live band (yes at nine years old, I was a working musician!)
The country fans were amazing, I had so much fun with everyone, I would sing Patsy Cline tunes, Reba, and my favorite Tammy Wynette, I wrote songs, was sponsored and given my first wonderful Cherry Red guitar by Heritage guitars, took keyboard tips from fellow band members, and had one huge great time doing what I loved with warm friendly southern hospitality!
I was honored to sing solo on the Grand Ole Opry, I made my American TV debut on the Crook and Chase show and also Todays Country (both TNN) I performed a duet with Paul Rodgers of Bad Company and Free at Itchyco Park music festival.
Live comedy/improv/musical shows at Miss Marples Dinner Theater, sang at the WildHorse Saloon and on the Nashville river stages. Also BB Kings, Franklin Jazz and Blues Festival, the Exit Inn etc. I was also offered a recording contract by a major label in Nashville, but made the decision to wait, & not rush things so I could develop as an artist, and try out various styles of music.
In Los Angeles I have played at various clubs, I was a special guest of Uli John Roth (The Scorpions) at Ralph Freud theater in the Sky concert series. I continue to write songs, and grow as an artist whilst enjoying Sunny California where I have met so many special new friends!
