Live & Unsigned - Ready to go this Sunday
Hi there!
Well, the day has almost come. Just five short weeks ago, I found out I had won a chance to compete in the Semi Final stage of Live & Unsigned. Today, only two nights to go, and I am ready - as I'll ever be!
I'll be performing my original song, "No Tomorrow" which you will have heard on this side, amongst others. The t-shirts are printed, the flyers are ready to go, rehearsals have been done, we're ready.
Of course, I've done none of this on my own - for getting me to this stage: thanks to my cousin Tarryn for organising so many things and trying to keep me sane (!), Alexio Ferrao Design (www.afd.net) for designing my flyer, Enfield Independent (www.enfieldindependent.co.uk) for newspaper coverage, Joe Public Studios (www.myspace.com/joepublicstudios) for the arrangement on my track, Aldridge Fisher for my new dedicated website, Al Fraser for fabulous beats and some really helpful advice, and Tammy & Krystyna for back up vocals. Also, thanks to Danny for being my rock, Clara for being my advisor, and my friends and family for all their support.
So for the next day or so I'm on chill mode, right at the minute I'm chilling in front of the tele, with a cuppa, watching Sport Relief on BBC 1 - a charity that I am a full supporter of - its such a good cause!
Anyway, as for Live & Unsigned, I hope to see some of you there! Tickets are still available, and can be reserved for pick up at the door at this stage, cost is £6 each and showtime is 5:15pm.
Other than that, thats it from me for now ... until Monday then, when I will write again to give you the results...

UK Unsigned - Now I am a FINALIST!
Hello every body...
Yep - I'm ecstatic! Went to perform in the Semi Finals of UK Unsigned last night, and managed to make it through to the Finals which will be held at Hackney Empire on 30th March... Met a couple of cool people as well also singers - Colin, and my friend Cherelle... I've got a few pictures - will put mine up and wait to hear from Colin and Cherelle where they want me to email theirs too..
It was a fabulous, and very entertaining evening. There were so many talented singers in each category, heard some really inspirational original songs too. Best of all was Leon who is a young black man who plays the harmonica...! yeah you read right - and what a talent... his performance gave me goosebumps... I'm sure he will be famous! (better make friends with him now eh.. LOL)
Anyways, watch this space for updates on the finals of UK UNSIGNED to be held on 30th March at Hackney Empire...
Much love
Sahara C
