I started performing from a very young age, my junior school choir in fact, whilst I gave football a go my passion was always singing, so I decided to audition for the school choir, I remember it vividly I sang Kum Ba Yah†and my music teacher the inspirational Miss Whitham seemed suitably impressed, I passed the audition and began what was to become one of the most memorable times in my life. Some of the kids in the choir joked about only joining the choir to be allowed to go on the Alton Towers trip, but for me the sheer joy of getting up with them and performing in front of an audience gave me such a thrill and made me feel a part of something special and the choir was certainly that, we performed all over the North West from Martin Mere to Radio Lancashire on a number of occasions.
