• Recent BA Hons Music graduate with good knowledge of music

• Singer-songwriter with many compositions in repertoire
• Lead vocalist and keyboard player in my own rock band, The Last Word
• Lead female vocalist with the Rex Trevett Big Band, Bridport
• Specialised in rock, pop and jazz singing/performance at university; for finals, performed a 45 minute set as a lead singer, forming and organising a backing band of 9 musicians, singing a wide range of popular music from Aretha Franklin to Led Zeppelin

• Good working knowledge of Sibelius software

I am committed to building a career for myself as a singer in the musical entertainment industry because I am happiest onstage singing with a group of like-minded musicians. I can arrange and transpose pieces for other band members, as well as interpret standard hits in fresh and alternative styles.

I have a selection of original songs as well as live covers on my MySpace and YouTube websites:
