Where you are from: Whittlesey

Member: Lexie Green: Songwriter/Vocals/Acoustic Guitar/PianoInformation: Up until December 2006 I'd never written a song or picked up a guitar in my life before. I sat in my kitchen Christmas 2006, whilst the rest of my family were poorly with a sickness bug, and I wrote a couple of songs. I did a really basic recording on my PC and uploaded them onto the internet. I started receiving some great comments and a lot of encouragement to write more.

So January 2007 I bought my first guitar and took a few lessons and sat down and wrote some more songs.

In the past year I've had songs played on various internet radio stations including GlastonburyRadio.net (UK) and WestSide Will Radio (USA) and collaborated via the internet with musicians from the USA and New Zealand.

I made it through to the Axiom Homeless Action Charity Competition finals in November 2007, where I stood up in front of a crowd for the very first time (previously I had only played in my kitchen in front of my PC) it was terrifying, but absolutely fantastic!

I've recently started working with Chris Green (no relation) who will be accompanying me on guitar. But even though I'll be leaving my kitchen a bit more often to do live gigs I'll still continue recording tunes via the internet with my great musician friends I have made around the world in the past year.

Influences: Anything and everything!

Next gigs: Sunday 30th March, Goodbarns Yard, Peterborough.

Sunday May 18th, The Cock Inn, Werrington (The Big Acoustic Chill All Dayer).
