About Lornette

Lornette Ford's profile picture
Singer
Leicester
Public liability insurance of £10 million

I'm not your conventional karaoke cover singer. As a singer song-writer I bring a stylistic element to performing music of most styles and genres. Signed to a major recording label in my teens, my lifetime love and passion for music and singing is evident. I'm no stranger to a recording studio and can provide backing vocals and session work well. Not only have I been in the spotlight as a solo singer, I have supported major recording artists as an opening act to massive audiences globally over the years and would consider myself as able to work to a given brief successfully. I am a qualified teach of music and vocal coach which allows to share my knowledge, skills and expertise on a daily basis.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

I get the most compliments regarding the quality of the vocals. In terms of engagement, it's usually at the clients request. They may just require background ambience or more interaction with guests.

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

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

I always try my best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event please let me know.

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

Absolutely. This is a really popular request and I can actually offer this service for free. If you'd like a iPod/DJ service via our PA between or after the final set until the venue closes, we provide this for an additional £150. Times permitting.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually set up about 45mins before the performance time. As soon as the PA is set up I can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for the live performance.

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

My set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests have an amazing experience. However, I am definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, absolutely. I bring my own PA system.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

If a song isn't included in my song list there may still be a chance that I know it. If there is a special song you'd like me to learn I are happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £30 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc
