About / Biography

Classical to modern, jazz to ballads. I cover most genre even though I am classically trained. Add a special personal touch as you walk down the isle for your wedding with your very own Mezzo soprano! I'm also booked to sing a final farewell to a loved one either in the funeral ceremony or an outdoor setting.

I've worked with numerous musicians from Manchester Camerata Orchestra, BCU, Bolton Symphony Orchestra at concerts across the North in venues such as King George's Hall and the infamous Liverpool Cathedral and Stonyhurst college(to name but a few)at concerts and oratorio.

Reviews from musicians and clients available of course.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

I think I'd have to say that my favourite , Liverpool Cathedral. I'd always wanted to sing there and the acoustics were amazing!


What's your favourite type of event?

I'm not sure I have a favourite type of event. I love singing for wedding ceremonies as it's such a beautiful joyous occasion to be a part of. The jazz n swing I sing a dream at a party.
I love singing for all occasions. Singing for a funeral is the most honoured booking - music and voice can add such a personal, warm final goodbye. It's always an honour .


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I was performing from the age of 14 when I first started my music and singing exams. Acting, singing and directing through college gave me quite varied experience but it was singing that I focused on. From there I have sing at countless weddings, funerals and concerts around the north of England and also Scotland and Wales.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

I adore the sound of Ella Fitzgerald's voice and she was such a talent at the piano too. In the classical/opera world, Jessye Norman, the American opera singer, blew me away with her strength , depth and tone and her vocal range.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I like to arrive an hour before hand just to rehears and make sure everything is as it should be.


Are you happy to perform outside?

I'm often required to perform outside, and I'm happy to do so.

I have a repertoire but in also happy to learn new pieces providing I have enough prep time.
