It is Friday!
Last night it was Boogie Bill's Billionaires. They are a fun and foot-tapping jump-jive band of Bill Roberts , Emma Willians and Paul Froggatt, recreating the sounds of the 40s and 50s swing and rat-pack era personified by the likes of Louis Jordan and Sinatra.
Bill's fingers dance along the key boards, while Paul provides mellow notes and awesome solos and out in front is Emma, the vivacious fun loving dancing vocalist with such a versatile voice.
And she continues to be my biggest challenge. She is such a talented singer but her dancing makes for a big task to render her on paper. She inspires me to paint her and then I am caught in the addiction of this lengthy process of trying to catch her beauty, character and movement on paper. In some of the numbers I barely put a pencil mark on paper. I then try and focus on one of her features to produce the pencil mark that will capture it!!
With so much attention on Emma there was little tome to do justice to Paul and his awesome sax playing and Bill's multitalented keyboard playing, vocals and sheer entertainment
