My festive season of live music performances began with a truly special invitation – being asked to perform at the St Ives Christmas Markets. What a lovely experience it was. It was definitely cold, but the atmosphere was full of warmth. Singing live, guitar in hand, surrounded by festive stalls, smiling faces, and the sound of conversation made it so worthwhile. I had some genuinely lovely chats with people throughout the day, and it reminded me exactly why I love being a live musician and vocalist.


Next up was a gig at Lot25 in Willingham, and what a gorgeous evening that was. I provided relaxed background live music while guests enjoyed their festive meals. Acoustic guitar, live vocals, and familiar pop covers created the perfect ambience. It’s always such a pleasure providing live entertainment that complements an evening rather than overpowering it, and this one felt just right.


I then headed to The Elm in Abbots Ripton, another beautiful venue and another great night of live acoustic pop music. The place was buzzing, with my guitar and vocals filling the room, along with a few Christmas numbers sprinkled in for good measure. It was one of those evenings where the music just flowed, and the atmosphere felt warm, welcoming, and festive.

Things didn’t slow down for long, though. I then travelled to London for a very special 10-year wedding anniversary celebration. The feedback from that evening was incredible. As the night went on, the energy really picked up, and the dance floor came alive. The feedback I received afterwards honestly meant the world to me:

“You were SO fab, so many people have messaged us today saying so. Thank you so much, you made the evening.”
Moments like that make all the preparation, singing, and performing so rewarding.

Speaking of preparation, I then shifted gears to get ready for New Year’s Eve at Congham Hall, King’s Lynn, performing with my duo Bethany Jane & Bro (guitar, live vocals, and drums). With upbeat live music, powerful vocals, rhythmic drums, and infectious energy, we had an incredible night of live entertainment, seeing in the New Year in style.
From festive markets to intimate venues, weddings, anniversaries, and NYE celebrations, it’s been a wonderfully busy season of live music, singing, guitar, and unforgettable moments – and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Looking forward to what 2026 has to offer! 🎶✨
