Biography
Heather Small established herself as a hugely successful vocalist with her band M-People. On the back of hits like Movin On Up and Search For a Hero, they were awarded a BRIT for Best UK Dance Act and went on to sell over 10 million records worldwide.
M-People won the Mercury Prize with their highly polished commercial sound, described as the perfect example of ‘handbag house’. Since striking out as a solo artist Heather has taken on a new identity, adding jazz and soul standards to her repertoire.
Heather’s single Proud is the official anthem of the London 2012 Games and was closely affiliated with Team GB at both the Athens and Beijing Olympics.
Performing to playback with backing singers or with her new band, Heather continues to serve up all the corporate anthems and hits including Search For The Hero, One Night In Heaven and Just For You.
‘The whole audience were up dancing and it really lifted the atmosphere.’
Heather Small and her backing singers put on such a stunning performance, Heather sounded and looked amazing. The song choices were great, it was fantastic entertainment and Heather was pleasure to meet on the night. Despite a minor sound issue with her sound engineer the performance was seamless and she really got the party started. Heather made the ‘in the round’ performance work and interacted with all of our audience.
Heather met my objectives exactly. Her opening song fitted in well with the theme of the event. I think the audience were a little shell shocked when they realised it was actually Heather on stage, I think they needed a bit more warming up as people seemed nervous to get up and dance, but just before she did the last song she spoke to the audience and got them up on their feet which was fantastic – the whole audience were up dancing and it really lifted the atmosphere.
