Profile
Jill started her singing career in the late 1970s even in those far off days her similarity to Vera Lynn was well recognised and earned her the title "The Sweetheart of the Midlands." At that time Jill was selected to work in many of the top Cabaret Nightclub Restaurants such as; The Talk of the Midlands (Nottingham); Talk of the North (Eccles); Heart of the Midlands (Birmingham); Embassy Club (London) and as support to numerous star acts and bands.
Although at that time Jill was renowned for her excellent renditions of Vera Lynn favourites, she did not actually specialise until she was asked to put on a special show for the VE DAY 50th Anniversary Celebrations. A whole new show was produced at considerable expense, the music being especially created from scratch for all of the wartime favourites in Jill's singing key, which happens to be the same as Dame Vera's, to recreate as near as possible the original versions.
The VE DAY shows were a total success and bookings started flowing in for the 'Wartime Show', which is known as "Hits of the Blitz". The same success was repeated for the Millenium and HM The Queen's Jubilee Celebrations and Jill Daniels is now known nationally and internationally, as Britain's No1 singer of WWII songs and patriotic anthems. This show is a must for all patriotic occasions and 1940s theme evenings. Give your audience the chance to come in fancy dress. Such as; 5* General, GI or British trooper; Lili Marlene; old-time showgirl; old-time copper; a "Dads Army" character or even Adolf Hitler; Monty; Sir Winston or a 'spiv' - a great time will be had by all and that's a promise.
A typical performance is for 1 x 60 minute set and all PA and lighting is supplied.
