About Me |
|
| Born in Bradford, I treasure magical memories of Yorkshire pudding and listening to my older sister play Human League, reggae and Gil Scott Heron while she sat making plasticine earrings at the kitchen table. My theatrical debut was as a cow in a school harvest festival. I had an early dream about a witch who sat playing the theme tune to "The Third Man" while perched on a lamp-post outside my house in the dead of night. Then, one summer evening, long ago, I felt a little sulky and decided I had "the blues".I didn’t start doing music until 2003, first through cabaret and burlesque, then for three years I sang lead vocals in a live blues band called "Elephant Shelf" (http://www.myspace.com/elephantshelf and http://www.elephantshelf.com/) and toured many pubs, taverns and the like, including some pretty high-class joints, throughout London and beyond. Lately I have returned to some limited live performance while but I work on my serious stuff from home.I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace) | |

| Firstly, thanks for dropping by if you're reading this page. So far I've been pretty rubbish when it comes to blog-esque ramblings but I now have a vested interest at stake... I'd like to "up my game"... Posted by on Tue, 06 May 2008 06:55:00 GMT |

Doing the Folkey - Cokey. |

| I am always toiling over the issue of live vs recorded music and how Jess the lovelorn, folksome troubadour is not nearly as infectious as some random, funkadelic back-beat that sets cats a-jump... Posted by on Tue, 08 Apr 2008 03:21:00 GMT |
