Three finalists in April's New Roots event for young musicians, Jennifer
Considine, Ben Walas and Terry Emm can be heard at a showcase event at
the Rose and Crown, St Michael's Street, St Albans on Sunday July 13,
starting at 8pm.

Terry Emm is a 20 year old singer songwriter from Luton, who is
beginning to make his performs both solo and as a duo with fellow
musician Simon Stewart, also from Luton, he is beginning to be heard
more widely at clubs and festivals. He is working on a debut album with
a producer, Richard Durrant, of Longman Records. Rock N' Reel Magazine
said of him. 'Terry Emm is one of those young folk singer-songwriters
you see appear creeping on stage at a folk club without uttering a word
to the audience and unexpectedly out comes something really beautiful'.

Jennifer Considine, also from Luton, is at an earlier stage in her
development as a singer songwriter, with her thoughtful songs about
contemporary concerns and issues. Ben Walas is a melodeon player and
morris dancer from Northamptonshire, with lively traditional dance tunes
which will set your feet tapping.
