Influences
Mainly my Mum & Dad for playing so much music at home, especially rock & roll, and also, for being so rock & roll. My Dad played bass in the Remo Four (early 60's) and he rocks! The Beatles, Carol King, Neil Finn, Billy Joel, The Carpenters, The Everly Brothers, The Beach Boys/Brian Wilson, Crosby Stills Nash and Young, The Eagles, James Taylor, Simon & Garfunkel. I'm sure I can think of plenty more. How could I forget...Mamas & Papas! Oh and my big brother P.J.Andrew, who is the person to blame for getting me in my first band - The Big Still. Thanks mate!

Born and raised in Liverpool, Aitch began her singing career with a recording session at the age of 12. Having spent the ensuing years providing backing vocals for many Liverpool artists, she made the move to London, where the majority of session work was.
She has worked regularly with Jools Holland on The Hootenanny, Later, and 'Friends' albums, and has sung with many of the artists appearing, including Tom Jones, Edwin Starr, Suggs, Lulu, Solomon Burke, Prince Buster, Jimmy Cliff, and Lonnie Donnegan to name but a few.
Aitch can be heard on many recordings, and has also worked live with a list of artists which includes David Gilmour (Meltdown), Deep Purple (Albert Hall), Ronnie Wood, Roger Daltrey, Michael MacDonald, Mavis Staples, Joe Walsh (Fender Strat Pack Concert), Paul Rogers, Gary Moore, Joe Cocker, Van Morrison (Lonnie Donegan Tribute Concert-Albert Hall), Paul Carrack, and more recently with KT Tunstall, Corrine Bailey Rae, James Blunt, James Morrison, Paul Weller, Robert Plant, and Amy Winehouse.
As well as vocal arranging, and coaching, Aitch is also an accomplished songwriter, performing her own songs on both piano, and guitar, and was invited to sing lead vocals at the Albert Hall accompanied by Jon Lord at the piano, and the London Philharmonic Orchestra. She is a member of a quite unique sounding a capella Choir, and a rocking little covers band. She has recently completed her first album, which is now available from iTunes. Hard copies will be available by the new year.
Hello, Mrs!!! I've just downloaded your album thingy (at last). Haven't had a chance to listen to it yet, but will tonight. One complaint though....why not on CD?? I can't shoplift downloads, without getting into all that identity theft and stolen credit card malarky..and I'm too old for that now. Make sure the next album is on the silver CD thingy so I can nip into HMV and filch it in with all the booze in my message trolley. Enjoy your Christmas. Wee Jeannie Bingo - only 3 shoplifting days till Christmas!!! Worry, worry, worry!!!

Just stopping by for a dose of your wonderful voice and music, and letting you know that your friend Lynne is immortalized in my latest song, 'Lazy is Good'. It may not be the immortality she would dream of, but it is still immortality.
Hey! Check out our heavy upcoming track Slipping Away on our myspace. For now its a rough mix but it will be released fully mixed and mastered with a bunch of other songs in near future. Hails from Mastino!
Hoi Mrs...where's the album???? This is taking for ever....originally it was going to be a 78rpm, then a 7", a cassette, a cd...is it itunes now or are we waiting for the next music fad?? I'm 87 years old now and would like to hear the finished article before I'm sent for. Wee Jeannie Bingo - still hanging on by a thread.
