Lisa Redford Silver Wings Singing Event at The Forum Norwich

It was such an honour to assist with the wonderful Silver Wings exhibition in September and to meet so many amazing people with moving, heartfelt stories to share. So important to commemorate such a historic time and acknowledge the sacrifices made.

It was a lot of fun playing some spooky classics at the American Library – Memorial to the 2nd Air Division, USAAF for a creative craft Halloween event.

The next music event I’m running at the American Library is a joyful and uplifting Christmas singalong. Join me on Monday 22nd December at 1pm to get together to sing some festive classics. This free event is welcome to singers of all ages, fully accessible, and no singing experience is required! Booking required via Eventbrite.

Come along and sing some festive songs with me, plus sample delicious seasonal wine, beer, spirits and food.

Lisa Redford “When it Hurts the Most” New Original Song

I’ve been writing some new material lately and here’s a live video of a brand new heartfelt acoustic song, “When it Hurts the Most” – it was nice to take advantage of the beautiful autumn weather and play it outside the Mid Norfolk Railway at County School Station. Thanks for watching at my YouTube channel.

Very excited to share this! Here is the brand new beautiful video from my incredible student Breeze Redwine. Especially filmed for #NorfolkDay and showcasing the glorious countryside of the county, it has already had a wonderful response and also been selected as the official song for the occasion! The track is “Trust” – an original song written by myself and Breeze. Norfolk Day is Friday, 27th July 2018 and everyone involved in the video is from Norfolk:

Lovely to see some great press for the song and video. Thanks to EDP 24 for the feature.

Thank you Latitude Festival for another amazing weekend of outstanding music, performances, theatre, comedy and more. Also got to be involved in filming for the new Danny Boyle movie! More pics and video are at my Instagram: lisaredfordmusic
