Ita-Rose Whittam | Level 2 Music
Receiving positive feedback for my singing has boosted my confidence. An agent contacted me, and I got to send some recordings after I put my solo performance on the internet. After this year I want to get my band sorted and gig more. I would come back to L3 later as I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. Everyone is so nice to each other, and there is no hassle, it’s like a big family.
