About The Background Singer

"...absolutely superb performance, lovely gentle jazz music." Paul Tipper, Hotel owner

As a professional singer, I provide a sophisticated and elegant ambience. My jazz and easy-listening set is the perfect background music for drinks receptions. Past clients include the RNIB, Brown & Jacobson Law Firm, RAF Wittering, The Round Table of GB & Ireland, Cafe Rouge and The Marriot Hotel Group.

I sing using high-quality tracks on a Bose PA system. I'm covered by PLI and have an up-to-date PAT certificate.

10/10!

Penny was absolutely amazing and her easy listening style was the perfect fit for our event. Penny was really easy to work with, very organised and accommodating when planning our event and prompt on the day which is always a huge positive. I would absolutely book Penny again for future events.

Wonderful service!

Penny is an exceptional entertainer. Not only is she extremely talented, she has a beautiful voice, is very sensitive to her audience, and is a sheer delight to listen to. Her artistry and creativity is second to none.
