How long have you been playing?
I was a child entertainer from the age of 5. Started out in the tough working mens clubs of the North East England to get money to support myself through university. I am now bbbblllllbbblll (60!)
I have a small band and am at the stage of my life where I can be very self indulgent and only do stuff I like. Now I don't have to make people like me in order to eat! The proceeds of any and all recordings I make go to a childrens hospice in London UK. I have a musician husband, two sons in finance and five grandchildren, three of which are going to be musical! So watch out for the Regans!

So watch out for the Regans!
What was the first concert you ever went to?
Bad Company, Hammersmith when I was about 20 and I dont remember much because I was stoned. Then I saw Diana Ross at Ceasars Palace Las Vegas and decided not to be a rock chick but a Diva, I became both!
What gear do you use?
I use Yamaha 5 portable PA system. (I only drive a mini) In the studio I use Cubebase 7 with a Blue Yeti Mic and Yamaha desk.
What are you looking for from Fandalism?
I like to see what my mates are looking at, then I can understand their gushings on Facebook! Now that I have been on a while, I get so much pleasure listening to people from all over the world doing their thing! So much talent around! I have made many friends all over the world from Fandalism.
Who was your biggest musical influence growing up?
First was Frank Sinatra then I discovered Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald. A little bit of Etta James, and then Patsy Cline, anyone can sing Country but she did have that lovely hardness when singing her 'victim' songs. Lady Antebellum are my latest favs.
Are you in a band? Have you been in bands?
I have been in several bands from folk to rock to big band and when I was 40 I worked backing with an American punk band (hilarious but lucrative) I was always a 'jobbing' singer so took whatever style where the work was! Now I am in a position to be totally self indulgent and just do what I want to. I just love music and muso's!
If you could jam with anyone, who would it be?
BB King, John Legend and Billie Holiday
What's the biggest audience you ever performed to? What's the smallest?
In the USA with Barnum & Bailey I did huge stadium gigs and lots of TV, as well as a tent circus show and last year I did a local pub gig doing a country mix to 15 people but they were great! Most memorable performance was in Germany to a pub load of Skinheads and real heavy tattooed rockers and seeing some of them actually shedding tears when I sang To Make You Feel My Love (Dylan) (then one them asked me to sing Michael, Row The Boat Ashore so it sort of killed the mood!) I will sing to an audience of 1 cos I am stagestruck!
You're stuck on a desert island and only get to bring one album with you. What do you pick?
Soundtrack to Lady Sings The Blues The story of Billie Holiday
Diana Ross played it brilliantly. Can I have another one? Anything of Hawkwind.

All Of Me
I am normally a Jazz singer with a little Gospel and Country thrown in. I have had some success lately with 'folksy' styles and this request for All Of Me is not my choice of style. However, thank you for the request William, from Limoges, France. You took me out of my comfort zone!

I had never heard this song before until it was requested by Christina in Canada for her seriously ill friend who loves the song. So Martyn Oram made a backing track for me and here it is.

A couple of weeks ago I had some fairly shattering news. It could be worse, I do not have a life threatening illness but in one moment of time my life was turned upside down. I was told that I have permanently lost over 90% of the hearing in my left ear. From a severe head cold (plus years of heavy duty PA's) I have suffered permenant nerve damage. My right ear is damaged to a lesser extent and I have lost 10% of high range frequencies. I know I no longer perform professionally any more but singing still is a huge part of my life so I went into a bit of a catatonic state! Thanks to the support of my amazing husband and equally amazing mates I am coming to terms with it. This week I forced myself to try singing one of the really difficult songs I have a request for, (only 39 to go)
Anyway I did it and I can still sing, I can still pitch OK but the saddest thing is I cannot 'mix' anymore so my hobby is out of the window unless someone sits in the studio with me to help. I am being fitted with a hearing aid (OMG!) soon and have an MRI scan on May 17th to see the exact amount of nerve damage. So if anyone with a studio fancies doing some mixing for me I would be grateful. This is the first tune I've done as Nora Batty. It is a bit 'Bass -y" and slightly nervous sounding but I will say that it was the emotion of the song!!! This is for Betty Zanuck, Florida. Thanks.
