I'm Ellie, I'm 22 and having a great experience doing what I like best....Singing! I started singing when I was around 7 in our
 |
church choir, going to a catholic school meant that we sang like every morning on arriving for the day! I decided then that I liked the sound of my own voice!!! LOL! I used to sing constantly as a kid and would annoy everyone because I would never shut up! So anyway a few years passed I moved from Milton Keynes to Bedford, at about 14 years of age I was involved with school choirs and shows (I also liked to think I could act!). I took part in the Bedford river festival a few years running and sang at the corn exchange. And then a few more years passed....a lot of things went a bit wrong for me and my singing got pushed out of my life for a while whilst my family and I dealt with some terrible things that life spits out. I moved back to Milton Keynes when I was 16 and started my A-levels at college. I took drama and slowly my love for singing crept back! I took a part time job at Bletchley working men's club and loved working my Saturday night shifts because I got to see and meet all the singers and entertainers. I slowly started to develop some confidence and soon enough I plucked up the courage to ask for some help and advice. With Deepest Thanks to all of those who helped me get where I am (you know who you are!) I can now say that I have taken the first step and am now working with an agent and other local groups and organisations and I perform all over the place mainly on weekends singing a variety of covers from the 60's to today. I love doing my gigs and only aspire to keep getting better and perform more. I would like to work on some original tracks and writing, which is something I am starting to try out now. So hopefully in the not too distant future I will be telling you all about my new tracks! So that's about it so far! Thanks for taking a look at my page! Ellie
