Flowers passing travelled through Facebook and
over the telephone.
Lorna was a huge presence in Nashville. The former teacher arrived in Nashville in 2004 from Sheffield, England with her British accent and huge contagious smile. She quickly made her way into the hearts of many of the other songwriters with her warm spirit and kind ways. She was always there to help everyone and did. Lorna hosted songwriter nights and when she was diagnosed with cancer seven years ago, she announced she would fight for her life with everything she was and she did. She always had a great attitude and fought the monster with everything she had inside of her

“Ain't It Funny” - This lady is
fabulous, released this week from Glasgow singer-songwriter, all sorts of music
some folk lovely ballads, really is quality, just what we need for UK Country

music - Marie Crichton BBC Radio Shropshire
“Get Gone” - Really catchy tune and a lovely voice,
really nice singer-songwriter – Marie
Crichton BBC Radio Shropshire
Stephanie started writing songs in 2008. Her music is kind of a cross over
between folk and country.
Her first gig was opening for Joan Armatrading after only having done a few
open mics.
Released a 5 track EP Sweethearts & Angels (Monograph
Records) on 8th Sept 2012 with a launch at the Jersey Opera House.
Described by Maverick Magazine
(on their website) as "Glasgow's gifted
Newcomer" "A singer-songwriter with the raw talent, and sure promise
of future success. Her sound is the sound of tomorrow..."
Manns’ brand of Americana is
littered in subtle changes in direction of a music that is simple, effective
and at same time innovative – Americana UK
(See Review)
Manns started her musical career in Jersey becoming a regular on the
acoustic music scene (Forming her own band Eskimo Clan) . Since being in Glasgow
Stephanie has played Scottish Folk Festival Celtic Connections and such venues
as King Tuts and The Arches. Manns' style ranges from playfully wistful tunes
to the melancholic heartbreak that strikes at the core of country musicians.
The 10 track album COME CLOSER, out March 1st 2014, was recorded, mixed and
mastered with Graeme Duffy (from legendary 80’s/90’s
band ‘Wet Wet Wet’) at Motherwell-based Foundry
Music Lab
studios .

Carole King, Patti Griffin, Jill Jackson, Shawn Colvin
