ABOUT THE AUTHOR Andrea McCormack was born in 1978 hailing from Douglas in The Isle of Man, where she spent her early childhood years. She now lives in the beautiful city of Chester. Her passion is predominantly singing, but also she loves anything creative involving graphic design, photo, video editing and of course writing. Andrea spent her early teens up to now entertaining the public, singing in venues across the UK and Ireland. She started out in the local pub & club scene and has gone from solo act to rock bands, duos to the tribute market. The tribute scene is where she is at now performing her two tribute shows to Madonna and Lady Gaga. Before going into entertainment full time Andrea worked in web design and IT systems for a large pharmaceutical company in Cheshire. She gave it all up to live the dream; she never was a morning person! It was after realising how much experience she had in the entertainment field that she decided to write this book as there was no help around when she first started out. No one wants to tell anyone how it's really done, as people fear there are too many acts on the scene already. But the cream always rises to the top and in this business, there is room for everyone who wants to give it a go. She passionately wants to share what she knows about singing for a living... You never know ... YOU COULD BE THE NEXT BIG THING!
