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.

Think the above would have been posted by Alison MacFarlane & she's probably forgotten to mention that as she's so busy with this weekend. Keep up the good work Alison!

Looks like Luton has plenty of young talent, good luck to all of them for the Final today!!!
