Singalong with our fantastic Vintage Vocalist!
Our last companionship cafe was a real treat (apart from the usual tea and cake) as we were entertained by the talented "Vintage Vocalist" Paula. Paula is a unique solo vocal act bringing the music of the 40’s 50’s and 60’s to life and we all joined her on a ‘Sentimental Journey’ on the 5th November to listen to her fabulous voice. Paula who is influenced by vocalists of the past sang songs by Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Doris Day, Dame Vera Lynn, Ella Fitzgerald, Petula Clark and many more! An audience of 36 came along to listen to her and we've had some wonderful feedback and a request to hear her again! She will gladly be joining us again in March 2020 and it's not to be missed! The Companionship Café is held on the First Tuesday of each month 2.00 - 4.00pm at St. James’s Church Hall. We supply refreshments/cake/entertainment/quizzes and of course a raffle! Hope to see you soon!
