The front-person of the Boat Band(for twenty years) has ben Kate Barfield. For a long period(when the band was doing most gigs) the two front people were Kate Barfield and Allison Parkes. The men in the band were humble accompanists only. As am I to this day.
So if any organisers reading this feel that your club/festival is having difficulty keeping up to its quota of female performers, perhaps you will give us some consideration?
