From Eleni:
My names Eleni, I’ve been singing professionally several years now. I sing a little of everything but my favourite genres are Jazz, Soul and Blues. I started out busking and you still might see me singing my little heart out on a week day around the midlands. At weekends I gig in pubs, clubs and private events. I sing a large variety of music to suit all tastes and never fail to get a venue moving and dancing from all ages. I am singing at the Black Swan on Friday, so if you feel like shaking your booty or having a sing along I would love to see you all!
Eleni sings with Rebel Soul UK, a new band on the circuit who caused a bit of a stir when they appeared at the Genny B Jam night last year. 1000 views of my video overnight and nearly 5K view to date. Some fantastic comments from musicians from all over.
Want to know what I mean? Think of a young Janis Joplin right here in Melton singing for you, on this video Jamming with Rebel Soul UK
