Tom Wyllie, North East Singer, Marriott Gosforth Park
Tom was at Newcastle Marriott Hotel, Gosforth Park last night singing for some stars of the MotoGP world.

Tom was singing during dinner at the inaugural Riders for Health Ball.  Riders for Health manage and maintain vehicles for health-focussed partners in sub-Saharan Africa. Their expertise in transport management enables health workers to deliver vital health care to rural communities. The aim of last night's Ball was to raise enough money to finance another bike, similar to the one you see Tom with above.

Randy Mamola and Niall Mackenzie were hosting, although the event itself was organised by Dale Robinson and Chris Berriman. Neil Hodgson, and Bradley Smith, Taylor Mackenzie and Tarran Mackenzie were all there. If you know your racing these are names you will be familiar with!

Dale has kindly been in touch to say "Tom doesn't just thoroughly entertain his guests - he involves them. Tom absolutely wowed the guests at our recent ball at the Marriott Gosforth Park. The audience enjoyed the performance setting the scene and lifting the convivial mood for the rest of the evenings charity fundraising activities. Well done Tom you are a unique but very useful act, it is very easy to recommend you as an entertainer to anyone wishing to have an audience lifted, entertained and involved."

Tom's next public gig is at Marabini's in Morpeth on Saturday 8th June.

Tripping the light fantastic

Tom Wyllie, Marabini's 25052013
Tom Wyllie, North East Singer, has recently invested in some stage lights. Nothing too fancy - he isn't a disco! Occassionally however, Tom is asked to perform at events and parties, where his client doesn't necessarily want to go to the additional expense of hiring a disco. In such circumstances, Tom now has lighting that can still "set the mood".

Tom was back at Marabini's last night, and took a couple of his lights along for a test run! Tom was in good form, and everyone had a great night - always the case at Marabini's!

There was a hen party who stayed on to the very end, and we wish the bride all the very best for her forthcoming wedding!

You can catch Tom back there on Saturday, 8th June. Booking is essential!

Clare and Chris Davison Wedding with Tom Wyllie North East Singer 001
Warm congratulations to Clare and Chris, who woke up this morning as Mr and Mrs Davison! 

Last night, Tom Wyllie, North East singer was delighted to perform for Clare and Chris at their evening reception at Doxford Hall Hotel, Northumberland. By late afternoon, the sun was shining at the lovely venue and Clare and Chris had a great day.

Later, Clare and Chris kindly got in touch...
"Thank you for a brilliant vocal performance at our evening wedding reception last night at Doxford Hall. From the very beginning when we first spoke to Tom, to booking him for our wedding reception we found his level of service to be first class and very professional. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he was more than happy to go that extra mile for us. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed listening to you sing Tom, and we loved your interaction with our guests as you walked around, which many thought got them more involved. It was lovely to see a family working as a team together and making it an evening to remember for us.
We would definitely recommend you to anyone seeking a top class performer for any event and you have 2 new fans who will definitely be making a visit to Marabini's in Morpeth to see you perform in the future. 
Many Thanks again
Chris and Clare"

We all wish Clare and Chris a very happy further together!

New songs...

12/05/13 17:12 Filed in: Gigs | Venues
Tom was back at Marabini's last night and introduced some more new songs to his repertoire. He gave a first outing to The Toreador song from Carmen (Bizet). Of course, he still sang Nessun Dorma which is a great favourite.

Later he added Earth Angel (The Penguins - sung in Back to the Future), You Can't Hurry Love (Phil Collins) and Copacobana (Barry Manilow). He also sang current hit It's a Beautiful Day (Michael Bublé). All went down well - it's always a good night at Marabini's. Laura Brown was there on Saturday with a large party at the front of the restaurant, and later, she messaged Tom on Facebook - 
"Great night last night Tom, thanks yet again - you were FAB xxx".

Thanks Laura, glad you enjoyed the night. You can catch Tom at Marabini's again on Saturday 25th May!

Learning from the best!

Eddie Izzard Metro Arena
On Saturday Tom and his family took time out to watch a top performer in action. OK, so Eddie Izzard may not be a singer, classical or otherwise, but as a performer he was absolutely brilliant. He was touring his Force majeure show at the Metro Arena and his take on Olympic dressage was hilarious and none of us will ever play Rock, Paper, Scissors again without first thinking of Eddie's version!

Tom will be back in action on Saturday at Marabini's, Morpeth from 8:30pm.
