Estrella -A Very Talented Liverpool Girl band
Liverpool continues to produce more musical talent in the form of the highly acclaimed Estrella. A great group of good looking young girls who are very melodic and harmonious, who will become apart of Liverpool's great musical history. They have a fantastic distinct vocal style , they are simply perfection.
Estrella
have have achieved so much! All girls have been performing since a young
age & are all passionate about music and love to perform live, the true test
of any artist. Throughout their music soul/gospel & rnb influences can be
heard. All girls individually have powerful, soulful voices but together they
blend beautifully. The girls have high hopes & aspire to be just as
successful as other vocal harmony groups like En Vogue, Brownstone,
Boys II men, Destinys Child and Eternal.
Their songs consist of beautiful arrangements, made up of rich soulful
harmonies. The Girls are also known for their technical acapellas,
THEY ARE PURE CLASS

Laura Critchley - An exceptional singer from Merseyside
Laura Critchley his a successful singer from Merseyside with a distinct vocal range of pure quality!
As well as being successful in her own right, she has supported many prestigious Artists including Boyzone. Recently she worked with Tom Jones on tour as a backing vocalist. Long may her success continue
I have had the pleasure of photographing (above) and meeting Laura myself, when she performed in Beatles Day 2009.
First and formoast Laura's own material is top class, but it is great to listen to her interpretations of other peoples songs, I think it is quiet a challenge to sing anthems by other Artists and make them your own, Laura does this to absolute perfection!
Laura is not just supremely talented, but also a very nice person as well.

Sport
Merseyside has always had great sporting traditions, Football & Rugby tend to get a lot of Publicity, but Football & Rugby are OBVIOUSLY NOT, the only sporting success story that this area has, as these links will show, Red Rum was by far the greatest National Horse, and Lotti Dodd was a legend in a lot of Sports.
Football
Everton Fc
4th September 2003 History is made.
Liverpool born Wayne Rooney, 17, of Everton FC. becomes the youngest player to score for England
June 17 2004, history made once again, Liverpool born Wayne Rooney becomes the youngest player to score in the European Football Championships.
DIXIE DEAN
I support Everton, but regardless of who I support, IT WOULD BE HARD TO IGNORE THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF ONE MAN, DIXIE DEAN MERSEYSIDE HAS MANY GREAT SPORTING HEROES which feature in the links BUT 60 goals in one season says everything!!!
