SPEAKEASY

I have been doing a lot of cover gigs lately so it was nice to finally get back to doing what I do best performing my own music with my lovely dancers. We had an amazing time performing at Glasgow Gay Venue Speakeasy on Sunday the 29th of July.

It is one of my favourite venues to play as the crowd and staff are really cool.
They also do the best food in Glasgow and I had an amazing salad and my dancers had Nacho's. Then I had my usual can of sugar-free red bull which I always drink before I go on stage. It gives me the energy I need to perform.

I performed Claustrophobia, SuperDiva and First Love as well as covers "All fired up" by "The Saturdays" and "All about Tonight" by "Pixie Lott".
The whole night was presented by one of Scotland's best drag Queens Miss Nancy Clench who writes for ScotsGay Magazine. She is famous on the Scottish gay scene and I love her to bits! Check out the picture of us below partying together before my performance.

I am currently working on a new set for my English part of my UK Club tour, so for the next few months I am going to be in rehearsals a lot which I love!!

I also got the chance to meet some of my very loyal fans at the gig and it is one of the best feelings in the world when someone tells me that they love my music it makes me beam from ear to ear. Oh and I met a singer at my gig who works for my idol Eddi Reader so I gave him a flyer and he is going to pass it on to Eddi for me and tell her how much I love her music it would be a dream come true for me to meet up with her and get some advice on the music industry as it is pretty hectic and crazy.

Anyway if any of you have not listened to Eddi Reader you are missing out big time! She is the most talented and amazing songwriter and vocalist you have ever heard and her lyrics are beautiful and from the heart!! Go and You Tube Eddi Reader allelujah one of the best songs of all time in my opinion!!

Hope you all had a great weekend

Lots of Love
