Don’t you just love it when the sun comes out at the end of a grey day?! Happiness is a walk in the sunshine with some decent tunes 😊☀️🎶

My favourite songs don’t belong to one genre.

One minute it’s Nick Drake. The next it’s Little Mix. Then suddenly I’m listening to Elgar like it’s completely normal to swap between folk guitar, pop vocals, and orchestral strings in the space of a day.

And I used to think I needed to pick a side when it came to music. Like I should be “a brit pop person” or “an R&B girl” or “a classical nerd”.

But I don’t feel that at all anymore.

Because I don’t really listen for labels. I listen for how it’s made.

I love the way harmonies sit together, how voices or instruments can support each other, clash slightly, then resolve. I love the way a bass line can quietly change the whole feeling of a song. I love how a melody can feel simple on the surface but be doing something really clever underneath.

Whether it’s a stripped back acoustic track, a big pop chorus, or a full orchestral piece, I keep hearing the same thing: people making sound fit together in interesting ways.

That’s what pulls me in.

So I don’t really feel the need to declare a “type” of music I like.

My musical taste won't fit in a box, it’s more like a listening habit. I’m always noticing the layers, the choices, the way everything connects... and genuinely always trying to work out if I could sing it with Songbirds or simplify it for Show Up & Sing! (It's a blessing and a curse!)

Good music is good music, whether it’s Nick Drake, Little Mix, or Elgar.

Different sounds.
Same appreciation.

Yes Madge... it really is.

Music has this incredible way of bringing people together, no matter their background, experience, or confidence level.

You don’t need the same skills, the same knowledge, or even the same starting point... you just need to be willing to join in.

That’s exactly why Show Up & Sing! is designed the way it is.
👉 No need to read music.
👉No need to have sung in a group before.
👉No need to “know what you’re doing”.

Everything is taught in a simple, accessible way so anyone can take part, feel included, and enjoy the experience from the very first session.

Because a good song is a good song, and the best thing about a really good song is singing along to it and having a blast!

This feedback from a recent session was so reassuring to know that I'm pitching it right!

At Show Up & Sing, there is:
👉 No complicated music reading
👉 No pressure to get things “right”
👉 No feeling like you’re being left behind.

Just a simple, supportive way to learn songs by ear, step by step, in a way that actually feels enjoyable.

Because in these sessions, I want singing to feel accessible. It should feel relaxed.

And most importantly, it should feel like something you can just turn up and be part of without overthinking it.

So if you’ve ever thought “I’d love to sing, but I wouldn’t know where to start”… this is your sign.

It really is that simple.

There's a reason that singing with other people feels so much better than singing alone... it's all about those good vibrations baby!

Some weeks you just need to sing it out 🎶

Show Up & Sing is back tomorrow lunchtime... no pressure, just a bit of midweek feel-good energy.

We go again… who’s in? 🙌

19/04/2026

My main aim with these sessions is simply to spread a little bit of joy… and hearing these words from people who’ve come along, given it a go, and felt the lift that singing together can bring makes my heart happy!

We go again Tuesday at lunchtime...
👉 No pressure
👉 No auditions
👉 No need to be “good”

Just a chance to switch off, breathe, and sing 🎶

If you fancy a little mood boost and some gentle, feel good energy… you’d be so welcome.

Who’s up for it? ✨

Bringing back a bit of primary school assembly nostalgia today 🎶

Does anyone else remember singing this at primary school? And is anyone else old enough to remember Trev & Simon?!

Singing can feel scary. Putting your voice out there, especially in front of others.

But at Show Up & Sing!, my aim is to make singing as accessible as possible, no matter your experience, confidence level, or background. You don’t need to be “good at singing” to start. You just need to start.

And something really special happens when you sing together in a group… the nerves soften, the voices blend, and suddenly it doesn’t feel so scary anymore. It feels powerful. Connected. Free.

Your voice is already enough. Come and discover what it can do when it’s shared. 🎶

I’m a sucker for a classic throwback song and our first two sessions have been proper retro… but I thought this month I'd mix things up a bit with something a little newer!

I’ve got two absolute TUNES in mind, and I need YOUR help to decide what we’ll be singing next:

💫 “It’s All About You” – McFly
🌟 “Suddenly I See” – KT Tunstall

Both are feel good, sing your heart out tunes… but which one gets your vote? 🤔

React with 👍 for McFly or 😊 for KT!

Can’t wait to see what you pick… and even more excited to sing it together! 💛

I've received a few questions about Show Up & Sing! lately, so here are some quick answers to help you know exactly what to expect 🎶💛

👉 Do I need to be able to read music?
No, I don't give people the musical scores – just a good old song sheet with the words on so everyone’s on the same level 🙌

👉 Does it matter if I haven’t sung in a choir before?
Nope! I welcome people of all abilities (although if you're used to 8 part harmonies it might be a bit basic for you 😆)

👉 Will I have to sing on my own?
Absolutely not! This is all about singing together… although if you want to throw in a few riffs, I’m here for it 👀🎤

👉 Can I just turn up on the day?
No, you will need to book in advance so I can make sure there’s enough space and song sheets ready for everyone ✨

If you’ve been curious but unsure, hopefully that clears things up a bit 💛
If you still have questions I haven't covered here, feel free to DM me!
