Jessica Poole - Female Singer - Leeds, Yorkshire and the Humber Event Location: Mansfield Event Type: VE Day 75 Online Event 8th May 2020

Jessica was the star of Mansfield District Council’s Virtual VE Day singalong event on MyMansfieldUK in May 2020 after Covid put a halt to plans. She sang a wartime set and led the national singalong of Dame Vera Lynn’s “We’ll meet again”. She was professional, friendly and extremely helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for her. She helped promote the event to ensure it would reach as many followers as possible and her beautiful singing voice went down really well with followers. I can’t thank her enough for working with the council on this event and even allowing us to donate her fee to support the Covid response fund for local charities and voluntary groups. Thank you Jessica! A true professional.

Jessica Poole - Female Singer - Leeds, Yorkshire and the Humber Event Location: Swinton Event Type: Club Event 8th March 2020

Jessica's set list showcased almost the entire range of her skillset, was well presented and, unlike many others, didn't include the same old 50s & 60s chestnuts. Result one happy audience! If there was a Champions League for female vocalists, she would be up there mixing it with the best of them. Well done!

Jessica Poole - Female Singer - Leeds, Yorkshire and the Humber Event Location: Leeds Event Type: Charity Ball 4th November 2017

Jess is a true talent and professional. On the night she sang two sets and at the end of the night she was what everyone was talking about. The charity who i did the event in aid of even took her details to use at their events. Jess did a set list tailored to the needs of the event and even learnt some new songs as I requested them. You will not regret booking Jess for your event. Thank you Jess for a fabulous show!
