About:
|
Music is my primary passion but I have vast experience in media, including extras work and modelling. My looks have been described as striking, strong, glamourous, and I do love dressing up in many kinds of costumes! My voice is bluesey with very good control over the break between chest and higher register. I have a 3.5 octave range and can cover most styles, other than rapping. For many years, I sang in rock bands and I still love to sing rock. In later years, I have broadened my range of styles massively, now having many dance tracks out on white label and tackling jazz in a contemporary way. I have learned to use my voice dynamically, singing with softer tones and letting it rip occasionally when it'll make an impact! I have strong writing skills and am curently working on a community project which will be an album based on the peotry of W.B. Yeats. I am looking for singing, music projects, session work and also as a tv/film extra and walk-on actress.
