Up in the loft yesterday and it never ceases to amaze me the things I’ve done and not in bad way but as you get older you forget stuff 😉🤪 This was a 2 performance only Sunday concert and more importantly it was my friend Scott Alan’s @scottalanmusic London debut and everyone was obsessed by his debut album ‘Dreaming Wide Awake’ over here in the UK and I had just recorded his song ‘The Journey’ from that album with my bestie and diva Alison Jiear @officialalisonjiear on my ‘All I Am Album’, So I was more than thrilled to appear on the bill with these amazing performers and getting to sing with Ali is always a thrill. It was produced by Simon Grieff @simon_greiff and backstage was a total bedlam and a real hoot 😉 @annalenebeechey @bedellad @stephaniejblock @raminkarimloo @annafrancolini @beingbeckylock @patinamiller @francesruffelle @carolinesheen & @oliverbowentompsett #blessed #whataday #loft #musicaltheatre @lsqtheatre X @spotify @applemusic taken in Leicester Square Theatre by @johnbarruk
