BROADWAY and West End star Lena Martell started singing at the age of 11 with her brother Allan's band and has since recorded over 30 albums. See her in concert at the Platform in Morecambe on October 28.
Tragically, Allan was killed in a road accident at the age of 22. A devastated Lena decided to continue with her singing career as a tribute to her brother.
Since then, Glasgow-born Lena has had her own BBC TV show with twelve and a half million viewers, received gold and silver discs for her record sales and been voted British TV Personality four consecutive years.
Her 1979 single One Day At A Time stayed in the charts for 36 weeks and went to number one in four countries.
She has since played on Broadway, the West End, the Palladium and Las Vegas as well as many other venues all over the world.
Lena Martell plays the Platform in Morecambe on Friday, October 28. Tickets are £10 / £9 - call 01524 582803.
