Chrissie Leigh has been a professional female vocalist from the tender age of 16

Before Chrissie became an entertainer she had her first brush with the industry when she was asked to lay down the vocal for the popular dance track Braveheart which was then played in many of the London nightclubs where Chrissie met the likes of Pete Tong and Sonique.

With an continued enthusiasm for music (mainly the teenage hairbrush in front of the mirror) Chrissie received a microphone in her hand at the tender age of 13, during a karaoke night in her parents local working men's club and proceeded to wow the audience on what was then the latest craze in pub entertainment, the karaoke,
Chrissie was then hooked and thus was born one of the finest female vocalists in entertainment you are likely to see.

 

CHRISSIE LEIGH

Female Vocal Entertainer

At 16, Chrissie armed herself with a Carlsbro Marlin amplifier and non descript speakers, kindly funded by her granddad, and proceeded on her way to her first gig in Coventry. Being very young at the time it was an eye opening experience in a venue to turn the most established entertainer off the industry, but Chrissie's passion for singing enabled her to over come this fear. After a year or so doing the odd pub and just a few clubs here and there Chrissie went to became managed by her first real agent who guided her to be more confident and teach her the ropes to being a great entertainer as well as a great singer. This enabled Chrissie to start to build a reputation in the industry and go on to do some of the great venue's she still appears in to this day.


Chrissie has been awarded many times for her talent but thinking modesty is the best policy and keeping her feet on the ground, she rarely cares to mention these.


Now 27, Chrissie has travelled the length and breadth of the country performing in pubs, clubs, military barracks and shows. Chrissie along with her husband Kevin (and sound engineer) spend a lot of time and place a lot of pride in perfecting the show with a fantastic PA and great lighting show along with the huge range of songs that Chrissie entertains her audience with which also includes a fantastic tribute night to Soul and Motown as Motown Mama. Chrissie and Kevin make a fantastic team and it shines through with the show that they produce.


Chrissie's career has been full of experiences and extremely fulfilling memories making her the great artist she has become.
