'I am a very perfectionistic vocalist and like to get it right. Over the last fifteen years I have sung songs from most genres - giving me versatility and the confidence of knowing my voice inside and out.  I get the melody and feel for a song very quickly and consider myself to be 'one-take' vocalist, something which now comes naturally to me since embarking on the exciting, but often unpredictable journey to becoming an established singer and entertainer...'

ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
 
I feel I have achieved many things during the past fifteen years.  I have worked with some of the best musicians on a professional and semi professional level, both on past projects and generally. I have had the privilege of performing to both small and large audiences during my career and have enjoyed the experience at both ends of the scale.  I feel I have gained the admiration and respect of  both the general public and fellow musicians, which to me is the greatest achievement of all.  When I travel around and musicians are familiar with my name and what I do, I then consider I have been doing my job to the best of my ability and have given it my all, which was my intention since the day I started. 
 
WHERE I AM GOING FROM HERE:  
 
I am spending more and more time promoting Swansong - searching for work, designing and advertising the band's website and constantly updating and renewing information -  so I now consider myself the 'band manager'!  
 
I will continue to sing, either via agency or private work.
