ABOUT

I’m presently a supply time teacher. I used to run Junior choirs in school. I’ve sung with choirs as a member and a soloist in England and abroad; presently I sing as part of a Soul Choir. I’ve always wanted to sing with a group. I’m happy to sing a variety of genres. I’ve officially got a top soprano voice but I have three octave range. My voice is getting lower and richer as I get older. I’m happy to be out front or backing up a singer. I just want to do more with my voice than just sing to school children or my congregation! I am not young anymore and am rotund so not your slim brunette who can wear a skimpy outfit. I just want to sing and it not interfere with my lifestyle too much.
