Thomas the Lion of Collabro

Early on in the Collabro journey the boys all chose an animal they were most like! Thomas  is the Lion of the group!

Here is the proof!!!!

Best Shot??? Collabro Reaction!

This is one of my favourite shots of the guys reaction to winning Britain's Got Talent!  I love how genuinely happy they are.  Also it looks as though Michael is proposing to Thomas...down on one knee!!  And Jamie in the background...

All of these pictures show just how much winning means to the guys and how humble they are...As if they weren't going to win!!!

Jamie so emotional

hahahahaha

Rich literally jumping for joy!

Think Rich is a little pleased!

After the encore as winners

Thomas gives his reaction to winning!

With Ant and Dec....Dec's excited!!

A toast to the future!!

Collabro Performance in Louth!

I was so so lucky to be at the concert at St James Church in Louth in September last year!  For me it was so special as I had spent a lot of my time as a child in this very beautiful building!  My Dad was Assistant Choirmaster for many years including when Thomas was a chorister here!  When he sings his part in 'All of Me' it always reminds me of listening to the choir boys singing in the church!

Their voices sounded amazing in the church, it was spine tingling and I pray they will come back one day!!!

Thomas thanked everyone for supporting him and spoke of how special it was for him to come back and perform in St James!

Can't thank Collabro enough for taking the time to come to Louth!! Thomas also did get to spend some precious time with his family which these days is really rare as he's so busy!

Welcome to Collabro Blog!!!

Welcome to my Collabro Blog

I love to write so I thought why not write about something I love....Collabro!

So here is a little bit about me!

Writing is one of my hobbies and I live in Louth which is Thomas' home town!  My Dad was Assistant Choirmaster in St James' Choir at the same time Thomas was singing in it and gave Thomas private music lessons too!  Thomas' step dad and older step brother sang in the choir too and as a child I spent a a lot of time with the choir including holidays in Germany and Sweden!

As my parents are both music teachers I was brought up on classical music and musical theatre, both are also coral singers so I developed a love of music at a very young age! My Dad was also involved in the local amateur theatre group Playgoers, sometimes in the shows and other times in the orchestra, I loved watching the shows and was very proud of my Dad! Thomas also went to Playgoers!  As children we used to make our own dances up to musicals such as Joseph, West Side Story and The Sound of Music!  I now like a wide range from rock and pop to classical and musical theatre!

This is the Church where Thomas sang as a choir boy for several years! It's a very beautiful church and boasts the tallest parish church spire in England!


Inside the church


These are the stalls where the choir sing from during a service and Thomas would have sat here! I hope he behaved as I remember my Dad having to keep some of the naughty boys from messing around during a service!




Another view of the choir stalls, the red lights enable to choir to read their music!


As my parents are music teachers I was brought up on classical music and musical theatre, both parents are coral singers too so a lot of our time was spent with them at rehearsals and choir holidays! As children we used to make our own dances up to musicals such as Joseph, West Side Story and The Sound of Music!
