Hello! I'm Cara Bo. Thank you for visiting my page!
I am a trained vocalist and have been singing for over 14 years. For the majority of these years I have trained with an opera singer and continue to do so.
I perform music through the decades, with a vintage feel, from the 20s to present day, including Musical Theatre, Country, Swing, Jazz, Classical, and Popular Music.
I regularly perform at different venues and for various types of events, including:
I can offer Classical repertoire for ceremonies, or a variety of styles, depending on the event requirements. I will work with the client to ensure I am providing exactly what is asked for and more and guarantee an entertaining, classy and memorable performance!
Please do not hesitate to contact me for your next event!
