About Me

My photo
I am a 14 year old singer, living in Cardiff. I love to sing I have sung with the Welsh National Opera, in tours of Carmen, The Magic Flute, Turandot and La Boheme. I have also sung as a soloist at the Wales Festival of Remembrance at St David's Hall, and I've sung with Russell Watson on Keith Lemon's Lemonaid (ITV). I have also sung as part of the WNO Singing Club, performing in front of Prince Charles and guests at Buckingham Palace. I am a fluent Welsh speaker. My recent change from soprano to baritone has given me new challenges and opportunities. My vocal teacher is Carla Maney (famous for her appearances on BBC's The Voice) - see her website on the link below.

The rehearsals are going really well - it's a great piece and lots of fun. Looking forward to the first concert.

Russell Watson and me on LemonAid

The programme went out last night - loads of my friends saw it, and I've been getting really nice messages on Facebook all last night and this morning - obviously Lemon-Aid is very popular with 13 year olds..  Someone on a Russell Watson fan site has seen my blog  and commented about the new Anthems CD - just to set the record straight, the CD that Russell gave me was a dummy copy with a draft version of the sleeve - I'm promised a signed copy when it comes out.  Russell also gave me tickets for his concert when he tours in Cardiff  in June - can't wait.

Lemon-Aid - me singing with Russell Watson

My dad got a call from ITV today to say that I shall be appearing on this Saturday's show on 21 April at 6.15pm.  I'll be closing the show singing with  RUSSELL WATSON  "The Voice" - he was a really great dude, really friendly.  I was so nervous - I'm sure it will show.  I also got kissed by Michelle Keegan - Tina the barmaid on Coronation Street!  The whole thing was a really amazing experience.

Keith Lemon's Lemon-Aid

Spent a brilliant evening yesterday at Teddington Studios filming for the ITV1 Saturday show "Keith Lemon's Lemon-Aid" where Keith helped me to make a dream come true.  I got to sing with a famous singer! I  can't say who yet.  The programme should go out on the 28th April - subject to confirmation.

Shrewsbury

Just come back from a week away at Shrewsbury School with the National Children's Choir of Great Britain (NCCGB), my first time with the choir.  It was hard work but great fun.  I made some good friends and I'm looking forward to returning in the summer.  Back in Cardiff I'm half way through rehearsals for La Boheme - roll on the opening night!
