Who are your musical heroes?
Hands down my vocal hero is Etta James, her voice and the passion that she infused in her music is just breath taking. Dusty Springfield, Janice Joplin and
Stevie Nicks have all played a huge role in my musical upbringing , as have all the Rock and Roll greats. My dad brought me up watching his band play songs by Chuck Berry and Jerry Lee Lewis, I think I was their backing singer by the age of 7!
