Thank you for your lovely review, it was a pleasure to perform for you!

Samantha' played at our club - Garswood Conservative Club - on Saturday night (23/09/17). She was a thorough professional. She has it all, a great voice, great personality and is a genuinely nice person. The variety of songs she sang appealled to all ages and everyone who was there loved her. She's played twice this year at our club and I hope to see her again in the near future. Thanks for a great night and good luck in future ventures.

Fantastic entertainer, what a voice highly recommended
