Originally providing the backing-vocals for a 'Commitments' tribute show, Victoria was soon spotted by the highly acclaimed BBC Musical Director Cy Payne ( MD: Torvill & Dean, 'Come Dancing' ) and was invited to join his band as lead vocalist. Since then, Victoria has performed all over the world with many different acts, sharing the bill with a wide variety of artistes, including Patti Boulaye, Jim Davidson and Paul Carrack.

Victoria learnt to read music at the tender age of 5 and went on to become an accomplished pianist, before discovering her vocal talents in her mid-teens.

Recent work has included performing the female lead in Latino musical stageshow 'South American Way' before going on to tour with a 'Stars In Their Eyes' theatre show, followed by the female lead in the 'Magic of the Musicals' show at Hotel Intercontinental in Dubai and a 5-year residency with a cocktail duo at Centerparcs.

She has performed at many UK venues, including The Dorchester, Claridges & Sandringham House and has been chosen to sing at many prestigious events, including: the Tory Party 2001 election ball, Daimler Centennial Ball, & the Royal Westmoreland Summer 2000 Golf Tournament (Barbados). Previous clients include Damon Hill, Mickey Dolenz, William Hague, Geoff Capes, Steve McGann, Linda Barker, Fiona Phillips, cast of Eastenders and Peter Stringfellow.

Since 2000 Victoria has been touring the UK and abroad with the highly acclaimed Andy Leek band (Dexy's Midnight Runners) in addition to providing vocals for the summer 2000 Top-20 club hit 'Caribbean Affair' and performances with duos: Xanadu, Aura and Allure. She was also the feature of an article in the August 2002 issue of top magazine 'Marie Claire'.

Victoria works regularly with her own 6-piece function band, or as a solo artist and, if its a 'touch of class' you are after, she is the obvious choice! Able to perform everything from jazz classics through to popular party songs and modern chart numbers, Victoria can entertain any crowd - either as 'background music' or providing a more visual performance.

Her solo set-up is neat, unobtrusive and completely self-contained as she uses high-quality mini-disc backing - or she will happily sing with a resident pianist/band.

Victoria sings with breathtaking intelligence and emotion and is undoubtedly one of the most captivating and dazzling performers of today.
