As some of you know, Nerina Pallot, my favourite artist, gave me the opportunity to open for her and it was amazing of her as well as being a golden opportunity for me.  Since the gig, I have made so many new fans and contacts and couldn't have been happier with how we went down.  I was the support to the support and still had people LISTENING, applauding and coming up to me to  say hi and buy some eps.  Nerina was premièring her new album The Graduate and also played a medley of Elton John songs , but in her own inimitable style.

The next step is going to be doing my long awaited album.  As well as Nerina, two of my musical heroes are Nigel Stonier and Thea Gilmore and Nigel is producing my album.  Thanks to a close friend of mine, my ep was given to him and he RANG ME!! I thought it was a hoax call at first I was so stunned.  He really is taken with the variety of my material and we are currently in meetings to decide which tracks will go on the album, Glass Half? being recorded in Jan/Feb.  I have waited a long time to do my album mainly because of funds but also because I did not have the right Producer.

Tours in Denmark and L.A. will follow and I will be doing some gigs with my friend (and another musical hero) , Sheila Nicholls.

Just watch this space.  Five years of hard work are finally paying off. ..and who said you have to be a kid to achieve your dreams? X

If you haven't pledged for me yet, pledging ends on November 15th ....Love ya folks

GOOD FOR YOU .. xx
