Welcome to episode 3, it's the last one with Mum and Matthew. Next week we have two new guests, more on who they are at the end of this episode.

In episode 3 our chats range from cowboy hats at Nashville's, Grand Ole Opry to the stage at London's equally iconic Royal Albert Hall!

We even cover how some 'Empty Chairs' can lead to 'Country Roads' ....... when we share with you how we choose the songs I sing and how I prepare for recording them as well.

The most difficult part of when my voice changed is in this episode too. The sound I made when I sang was far from pleasant and singing in public during this stage is not something I wanted to do.

You guys all get a mention too 🤗

As we chat about the pull to listen to a young singer, Martin explains just why this can be so appealing to hear. We also touch on, the teenage singer phase that I'm in now, when I'm not so cute and I don't sing so high any more and the challenges that throws up too.

With lots more topics touched on too, please do share this with any young singers grappling with their own changing voice. Our hope is we can help them make sense of it all.
