Singer
East Sussex

Gilly has been singing for many years in cabaret and theatre working with bands, in production shows and as a solo artiste for such clients as Norwegian Cruise Lines, Carnival, TUI, P&O, Pride and Shearings to name but a few, in corporate events and at private functions. Because of her huge repertoire and working as a full time vocalist for over 20 years, she can bring that wealth of experience to any venue or event, reading the crowd to ensure the right songs are played, whether background vocals over dinner, or filling the dance floor from start to finish at your event. Last summer she was the resident vocalist for Thomson Gold in Mallorca for the 3rd year running and after many years of travelling has now decided to return to the UK to pursue her career here. She has also been Entertainment Manager for Parkdean Holidays and P&O and has run her own theatre school and production company. She has worked in pantomime, theatre, TV and film as a singer, dancer and actor, including playing Fantine in Les Miserable at the London Palladium. She also performs in her own choreographed Pink and Abba tribute shows and works with a funk and disco band, Funk PLC.

Hi Gilly, this is just a little message to let you know that we (hubby & I) absolutely loved loved loved your shows on the Pride of Rotterdam! We travelled on the PoR twice last week and enjoyed both your Abba show on Monday and the one with various songs on Thursday tremendously - so thank you so much for two of the best evenings we ever had on the Rotterdam-Hull-Rotterdam line in 25 years. All the best for you, hope to see you on the boat again! Warmest Regards

Gilly was booked to start off the live entertainment for the UK's 1st gay Biker Rally in Hastings this September. The band arrived on schedule and were set up by 0930 ready for a sound check. Gilly performed a great set and put a lot of energy into her performance. I would definitely recommend Gilly and her band as a fun and lively group to book. They were all very professional and a delight to have perform for us

Customer questions

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I will always accommodate timings once I have been booked.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, with a huge repertoire and knowledge of DJing this is no problem.

How much time do you need to set up?

Usually around 1 - 1 1/2 hours depending on get ins, venue, ease of getting to the stage, what lighting I bring, backdrops, etc.

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

We can absolutely discuss your requests and set lists, however many years in this industry has given me the experience to read a crowd and I do like to be able to change the set list as I go along if need be.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Absolutely.
