Physical Characteristics

Meet the Act

I started out as a teenager in various rock bands around my home town of Tamworth in staffordshire UK.Got a taste for Jazz and Big band swing from my Dad,s record collection but still I idolized the great rock singers of the day Ozzie,Robert Plant ,Paul Roger's and so on.As I grew up i went back to the jazz and swing of the great American song book.Worked at it for a while then formed a duo with a great guitarist and arranger,forming our band Mood Indigo we gigged hard for a few years then got a break.We were invited to perform for the James Bond 40th Birthday Party at Cannes Film Fesival.This ... fabulous event was the final Brosnan outing and he was there along with Halle Berry and many more A listers.After this event the booking came thick and fast.The band eventually folded and I continued as a solo act.
In my previous life I have been a shop assistant,window cleaner.Psychiatric Nurse,motorcycle messenger,and School caretaker!
I pride myself on an easygoing approach with the client always foremost in my mind.After all they pay my wages! Read More
