.. ..

Hi I'm Bridgette and welcome to my myspace page!

Please do send and keep sending your lovely messages and comments and I hope to see you at one of my shows! x x x

Check me out on Facebook, YouTube and Twitter as well...



The Times named her as the female artist to watch out for this year. North London based Bridgette is currently in the studio working on her eagarly awaited debut album. She has been personaly asked to support both French leftfield sensation Sebastien Tellier and American Soul legend Candi Stanton on their UK & European tours.

Bridgette is also the lead vocalist in the critically acclaimed act 'Oi Va Voi' where she took over from KT Tunstall, touring the world from Moscow to New York, and has also worked with the likes of The Nextmen and Basement Jaxx & The Earlies.

She recently performed live on Jonathan Ross’s BBC Radio 2 show and was a resident performer at London’s exclusive 'Masque of the Red Death' cult theatre production. Bridgette features on forthcoming albums from both Oi Va Voi and the Part Time Heroes, and will be performing her jaw-dropping live set at a whole host of the UK's music hotspots this year.

"This is grown-up pop that harks back to the Sixties with a cinematic sheen and clever lyrics that bewitchingly picked over relationship break-ups...(with) the stunning set closer Carousel, squalling trumpet backed the spooky, playful tribute to both Sixties girl groups and Weimar-era waltz. Think of Amy Winehouse meets Cabaret. As the audience exploded into applause, Amofah danced like a drunken showgirl. Surely there’s room for one of those."
