š Last Saturday, this fabulous bunch of humans stood in front of an audience (a couple for the first time as soloists) and sang their hearts out.
It was brilliant. Singers holding the space for each other.
And yes - the silly pose was mandatory.
The Singing Hive Summer Showcase is one of my favourite days of the year, and this one was no exception. So proud of every singer in this room.
š The Singing Hive LIVE! - at Benito Lounge, Chorlton
Hereās the full version of Bewitched from the 1940 Rogerās & Hart musical Pal Joey.
I sang it at Benito Lounge, Chorlton last week.
This is my new favourite song, and has been one on my list since I saw The History Boys at the in the mid-2000s
Enjoy!
