About me...

I am the son of a welsh country and western singer father and debarred stage psychic mother.  I sang on tour with my father from aged four,  then tried formal training at Guildhall, but created a ballerina character, Madame Galina, for Rag Week and was slung out.  So, I went into variety, touring one-man shows and working my way up to the major venues.  Taking Madame Galina to entertain troops in Iraq and Afghanistan nearly put paid to all that.

About my entertainment...

I am stand alone – if there’s a piano/keyboard, I’ll use it. But not necessary because I sang out in Iraq from a tank stuck in the desert – no orchestra in attendance. I will tailor timings to the night, though my talk usually lasts fifty minutes.

Fee:

My fee is £100 plus travel expenses to be negotiated depending on where the venue is.  For the tiny WIs and societies in Suffolk I charge just £50.00 plus half the train fare.
