About Me

hello hello I'm Rosanna I've been singing since i was teeny, although tunefully only since i was about 8 before that was just noise...I now perform all over the place with my various bands, I sing in duos and groups as well as my burlesque band, I've come to have a love affair with corsetry, ostrich feathers and jewels so developed the project, which is a treat for both the eyes and the ears! My musicians are top class, my costumes are delectable and we play a mixture of big band jazz and swing versions of modern classics.I love all sorts of music, as long as its good its on my Ipod, my fave music people would be Ella Fitzgerald for musical bliss, Verdi's Requiem for theatrical hugeness, Queen for camp genius, Muse for Matt Bellamy's fingers, Marylin Manson for the drama and darkness, Justice for making me want to dance and never stop, Britney for just being pure pop princess, the list goes on and on and on and I'll just keep adding to it when I get the chance. In life I'm the same I like climbing trees as much as painting my nails and Ill always be the last person on the dance floor as the lights go up. I love cooking but also love takeaways and I love staying at home as much as partying the night away. I love snakes and kittens a ridiculous amount but am terrified of daddy long legs and have a very irrational phobia of dinasours. My dream is to be able to play music all my life and always be surrounded by my mates who I love to bits and couldnt live without. So ya hope you like and let me know your thoughts!
