Session singer and gigs

Alicia on SoundBetter

I was asked to do the vocals on an original song to feature on a popular ITV show. I'm unique because I'm an ordinary mum with a hidden talent...I'm proud of that, I've trained all my life and feel my voice is still evolving

My range is Alto/Soprano. I've been classically trained and been performing since the age of 5. I started out competing in music festivals, then competitions as I got to my teenage years. Then moved into being the lead vocalist in covers bands and I was signed to a talent agency where I began my solo career.
I'm very down to earth, love singing with a passion and put my heart and soul into every performance and studio session. I will bring life to a song, I have been praised for making people feel what I'm feeling when I'm singing. It's emotional, it needs to move people. I am also very versatile and can adapt to many different genres and styles including pop, rock, soft metal, soul and classical.
