Testimonials:

Folk Music: “A lovely pure folk voice reminiscent of Cara Dillon” Robert Hacker, Walliswood

‘I had a wonderful day at the folk singing workshop. It re-awakened my deep-rooted desire to sing that I have neglected for a few years. Learning breathing techniques and the nuances of tone and emphasis that can change a song so dramatically, has thoroughly inspired me to take singing much more seriously. Thank you Sharon.’ Gail Whitney

“Listening to Sharon singing folk songs is so inspirational - her voice is uplifting and makes me want to drop everything and go out to sing in the woods!” - Lesley Burnill, Walliswood


Jazz and Blues: “Sharon is a superlative jazz/swing singer - anyone would be lucky to have her help them to learn to sing this style of music. I could listen to her for hours..” Paul Timmins, Surbiton

“What a fantastic opportunity this will be. I can thoroughly recommend this workshop to anyone wanting to learn how to sing better jazz/swing and blues. Sharon is a natural - and a great teacher too.” John Jones, Haslemere


Rock: "I've seen Sharon singing "Black Velvet" & "Bring me to Life"- which happen to be two of my all-time best songs and she sang one of them better than the version that was my favourite - the other clearly as good as the original by Evanescence" Troy Samuels, Horsham

"Sharon rocks!  She's got a big voice and a big stage presence - a brilliant performer and a great rock voice." S Jenkins, Farnham
