I love to sing and entertain, especially in pop/soul/jazz/gospel styles. I would love to share in your ideas and create high quality music that will uplift and entertain people ! Please do get in touch.
I have been blessed with a distinct but soulful voice which I have developed through live performance and recording, both covers and originals. I have full studio set up in which to produce high quality lead and backing vocals to suit.
Dry or processed recordings can be supplied .
Would love to hear from you with your ideas/requests.
