Freddie Blackett
Freddie has been a student at the University of Edinburgh for a year where he immediately got into the deep end in the city's musical culture. He played Tony in Edinburgh Footlights' production of 'West Side Story' in 2007 ("Freddie Blackett has a delightfully mellow voice, warm and easy to listen to..." **** (Edinburgh Evening News)) and has been heavily involved in the live music scene, playing acoustic soul and pop with Mike Shannon around the city. At school (Winchester College) he was lead male singer in the school's live band, 'Shagwagg', playing classic Motown and rock 'n roll hits. Due to his acting background, Freddie thrives on the performance side of singing and his passion is clear to see. However, this certainly does not detract from his singing as you can hear from a recording of one of last year's Shagwagg gigs
