tritoneman Mid-Atlantic (accent) ~~ Why? (237* d) RE: Mid-Atlantic (accent) ~~ Why? 08 Jan 11


I was taken in by the Singing Postman. I thought he was totally authentic Norfolk Man.
This makes me start to re-think my decision on the accent to sing with. Although I was born in Surbiton and spent the first nearly thirty years of my life in London I moved to Exeter thirty years ago. Maybe I should adopt a Devon accent to sing in?
Going back to the Singing Postman, he said that his biggest influence was Jimmie Rogers.
