NASHVILLE MEETS LONDON - SATURDAY 28TH JULY - SET REVIEW - THE ADELAIDES

-
Yesterday, I had the pleasure of attending Nashville Meets London in Canary Wharf, where I saw The Adelaides made up of Paris Georgia, Abi Phillips and Alicia Alba who are one incredible trio and it has been such an honour to see them grow as both people and artists. I am very proud of how far they have come since I first saw them last October at their debut performance during London's Country Music Week.

The Adelaides set contained 11 songs in a 60 minute set.

The Adelaides opened their set with one of their own original songs Jack Daniels which I absolutely adored and what a song for the girls to open their set with plus the atmosphere was just something else clearly everyone had been waiting patiently for these fabulous girls.
I'd Do It Again was one of my favourites from their set with the catchy vocals and the audiences energy was wonderful. The fact that Alicia, Abi and Paris allow each other certain moments to shine is incredible and was beautiful to watch. It was fabulous to hear all the wonderful feedback please were saying after their performance of this song.
My Church which was a cover in the set from Maren Morris which had an audience participation on and it was electric. My Church featured them all starting the song of all together which lead to some stunning and perfect harmonies! Everyone was so pleased to hear this song.
Reckless is one song from the girls that I can't help but song along too everytime I hear it. Alicia, Paris and Abi's energy on stage to their stage presence to their colour co-ordinated outfits were just incredible.
Painkiller was the first of a new one to me and one where their harmonies were fabulous and the audience were picking up on their happy vibes. I have never seen such an audience so engaged on one song.
Leave which was a new one to me which was written for them by Marcus Hummon after meeting him thanks to his son Levi who performed on the same day they did at Country Music Week last October but I absolutely adored it. Their vocals were amazing and I love how well the girls know how to compliment each other so well. The audience were up on their feet dancing encouraged by the girls and it was so nice to see everyone enjoying themselves.
Don't Wanna Love You which was a new one to me but they smashed this song as well with their harmonies and shared the audiences the incredible artists they are being since only performing together under a year. 
Daddy's Lesson which a new song to me even though its been covered by Beyoncé, Dolly Parton and Dixie Chicks but the audience were loving it and the atmosphere was just incredible and hearing the audience talking about their song after was just amazing. You girls have come such a long way.
What Your Heart Would Say is a song that I love singing along too, everytime I hear it live. What Your Heart Would Say is amazing right from the start and once Abi and Paris join Alicia on vocals it was just incredible! What Your Heart Would Say for me is emotional and I love that you can create your own message from the song.
Whiskey In The Dirt which is a brand new original song the girls performed for the wonderful Nashville Meets London audience and one the crowd were whole heartily listening to and it was amazing to witness an audience so engaged in a song. Their vocals were magical and showed what a long way that have come in just over a year of being together.
The Adelaides closed their set with one of my favourite original songs Jelly Baby is a funky and upbeat song from the girls which I adore. And if you think about the lyrics you can work out what the song is about from the start, it makes me laugh and people's face when they realised.
Loved that everyone was listening to them throughout their whole set and appreciated them and their songs.

SINGLE REVIEW - ELERI - KARAOKE

-
This Friday (11th August)  will see  Swansea based artist singer-songwriter, Eleri  release her latest single, Karaoke. Karaoke was co written with Vanessa Murray and Katie Buckland, and produced by Tim Prottey/Jones of First Time Flyers. Karaoke  has an upbeat instrumental setting the tone beautifully. The first verses sees Eleri's soft vocal at the forefront with lyrics that get you thinking of those moments at a gig that you don't think you'll ever get to see takes me back to experiencing Priscilla Block with Eleri last year, oh the memories. The second verse sees the song take another turn of when you feel like things aren't working out but you are determined to learn from the lesson it's given you. The chorus features many catchy upbeat lyrics that I could myself singing along with despite not knowing the lyrics 100% typical Kellie. There is so much passion within the lyrics and the more you hear the lyrics the more appreciation I gain. Love the summer of '

COMING UP ON EMMERDALE: AMELIA CHRISTENS ESTHER AS CHARITY AND AMY BRING THE DRAMA

-
With Amelia Spencer about to christen her daughter, Esther it wouldn't be a soap without drama during the ceremony would it? It’s the day of Amelia Spencer’s daughter, Esther’s christening who is touched by her boyfriend, Noah Dingle’s support who has been there for her during her pregnancy and now adjusting to her journey into motherhood. It’s lovely to see how much he genuinely cares and wants the best for them both. Following Lydia Dingles help in organising the christening, she is disappointed when Samson Dingle refuses to accompany her to his daughter’s christening. Chloe Harris and Amy Wyatt are confrontational around cousins Chas and Charity. However, when Amy and Chloe arrive at Esther’s christening following Chas’ invite, Charity is less than impressed. Things escalated as Charles Anderson’s begins the christening as Charity’s feud with Amy threatens to put the service in jeopardy - part of me is like yay for the drama, but the other is like why are you doing this ,Charit

EMMERDALE REVIEW - DAN SHOWED HIS VULNERABILITY

Over the past few weeks, Emmerdale viewers have seen a different side of Dan Spencer following his daughter, Amelia's social media ordeal which has allowed for a different side of the character's development to be shown. It's obvious to me and many other viewers that all Dan Spencer has ever wanted to do was protect Amelia, but the way he said some harsh things to her in Tuesday's episode (11th July) saw the vulnerability in both characters. It was during Wednesday's episode (12th July) where Dan said "you have every right to be online" was a moment I caught myself a little emotional over as it reminded me of my own experience once again - it's clear how much Dan cares about his daughter and just wants what's best for her like parents do. The way that parents want their children to hear the truth, sometimes isn't the best way to do but on the other side sometimes it just needs to be said. There was many times during this week that I felt for Am
