Born in Dundee, Lorna paid her dues as a teenager with top Jazz/funk band SHAKATAK and has a gold and silver disc for her vocals on the NIGHTBIRDS album.

She then went on to become Scotland’s foremost female session singer, singing jingles at RADIO FORTH and RADIO TAY and then working with top Scottish acts like SIMPLE MINDS, FISH, RUNRIG, BILLY CONNOLLY and FINLAY QUAYE (for whom she provided backing vocals on 4 hit singles). Lorna then moved south to work with the likes of DARRYL HALL, MICA PARIS, and PRETENDERS.

In her spare time Lorna appears all over Europe fronting 70’s Chart toppers MIDDLE OF THE ROAD.

As ‘Dance-Diva’ LORNA B she was constantly flying to Milan to record for top Italian record companies and had several dance hits in the late 90’s topping both the Dance and Club charts as featured vocalist with D.J SCOTT, ZERO V.U. and SHARADA HOUSE GANG, twice making the top 4O with tracks produced by Stock and Aitkin. She also spent 2 weeks at No 1 in the Dance Charts with her version of SWEET DREAMS.

As well as studio work for top songwriters like Jeff Wayne, Les Reed, Barry Mason, Geoff Stevens, Richard Kerr, Roger Cook, and Elton John, Lorna has sung on dozens of jingles and television signature tunes. Those of you with children might remember hearing her on kid’s T.V. themes like TRAPDOOR, FUNHOUSE and LITTLE MONSTERS.

Lorna has appeared at The Montreux Jazz Festival and London’s Albert Hall as well as on T.V. shows like Top of The Pops and Wogan, but her most memorable gig before Middle of the
Road was appearing with Runrig on the banks of Loch Lomond in front of a crowd of 42,000 but has topped that by appearing in Germany in front of 45,000 eager Middle of the Road fans.

She is also an accomplished songwriter and came 6th out of 600 songwriters (and was the only female in the final) in the competition on Sky Tv called Tin Pan Alley hosted by Mike Read. This landed her a publishing deal and a nice award that sits on the mantelpiece alongside her husbands Ivor Novello Award.

Soul and Jazz music are her absolute favourite genres to perform and She has had the pleasure of singing with Lianne Carroll (The Uk's Queen of Jazz) on a few occasions which was a dream for Lorna.

Lorna's voice is somewhere between Aretha and Chaka , jazz soul is where her heart is and her vocal range is stunning.

She says that having dinner with Quincy Jones the night after he was presented with his Ivor Novello Award was one of the highlights in recent years but singing live is the best of all.
