Gavin Holligan
After signing a lucrative deal with premiership team West Ham FC, shortly followed by a debut appearance at Anfield against Liverpool FC, no one would ever imagine that a professional footballer would ever turn his back on the world of sport and find his way onto the big stage performing with Stevie Wonder, Jocelyn Brown, Aswad and Floetry, but that’s what Gavin Holligan did!
Despite making the unlikely transition, and enjoying various touring stints as background vocalist and keyboardist with established names - including Duffy (number 1 smash hit with 'Mercy' 2008), and Gloria Gaynor (legendary singer of disco hit 'I Will Survive'), Gavin became restless with the repetitiveness of it all, and eventually concluded that it was time to develop his own ideas.
