----------------TONGUE TIDE - THE DUO--------------------
Tongue Tide are a contemporary female singing and song writing duo born and bred in tidal towns either ends of the UK; Barrow-in-Furness and Broadstairs.
Rich lyrics, unusual harmonies and a powerful emotive delivery is the exciting result of their creative collaboration since 2007. With a strong captivating stage presence, a choice selection of tongue in cheek covers fused with their own quirky, feisty, provocative songs Tongue Tide entertain and engage their audience, riding the current from laughter through tears sharing ludicrously lucid moments of meaning.

Ali Rigg
Ali left formal education as soon as possible blowing harmonious raspberries as she went! Daydreaming had yet to be recognised as a constructive attribute....
Subsequent to her role as choir master of Lanternhouse Voices during the last six years of Welfare State International, Ali continues to inspire and enthuse hundreds of people with her velvet voice and passion for singing. As principle singer in countless shows she has worked alongside many top international musicians and organisations including the English Touring Opera.
"I exorcize beasts of my mind by singing from my core"
Jodi
Jodi has been tongue tied since birth affording her a cynical trip on this life fairground we all play around in. With no musical training to speak of other than a burning passion for matters of consequential truth, she has eventually stepped out of the singer song writers bedroom closet to share a peace of her mind to any audience member who dares and cares to listen.

With another year winding down to the end comes the end of year awards - and the return of the TGM Awards. The awards are back for its fifth year, hoping to be as successful as last year's.
To anyone who is new to this, the TGM Awards is an annual end of year awards event, which celebrates the best local bands in Cumbria and South West Scotland. And with many local acts battling for awards, there is so much to choose from.
We can confirm that Tongue Tide have 1 nomination:
* Best South Cumbria Act
Voting will begin on Saturday 22nd November and close on Friday 19th December, and the winners announced in the run up to Christmas.
