I started singing at the age of 17 with Tony in a duo called Deja-Vu. We traveled around the clubs, mainly locally in the Lancashire and Greater Manchester clubs and pubs. We used the club backing and we were in this duo for about one and half years. In 1984 we joined together with Gary (bass player), Steve (drummer) and Sandra (keyboards) and Tabu (group) was formed. We worked all over the country and started our first summer season in 1986 at The Villiers Hotel, Isle of Man. In 1985 all the members took the brave step of leaving their full time occupations and becoming professional. After 4 very enjoyable and successful years the group disbanded and Tabu duo was formed. We have had a summer season ever since including Warner and Haven venues across the country and a 14-year season at The Winter Gardens, Blackpool.
