Hi everyone, Some updates about Connie Talbot whilst there is a bit of a lull Connie just completed about a dozen concerts across England and Ireland for the Young Voices tour. Young Voices are school choirs which gather in large arenas like the O2 in London. Her set included three solos...'Run' (Snow Patrol), 'Rolling In The Deep' (Adele), and 'Beautiful World', which Connie wrote herself aged 7. A concert video... www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3Y2bahPi_4During one of the final shows in the tour, Connie and the choirs set a Guiness World Record for the most backing singers for a solo performer. This marks the third certified Guiness Record for Connie; she still hold the record for youngest singer in the UK charts and the youngest artist to have a gold album. Here is a photo after the record presentation: Lastly, Connie is set to head to Los Angeles next week to record new songs. Here is article from the Walsall Chronicle:

Thanks for the update Joe,
It's good to see that Connie is developing her voice as she gets older. Great video it's been a a while since I have seen her sing live!

Thanks for the update Joe! My, her voice has certainly changed and developed, and she has grown a lot since I last saw/ listened to her! I wish her every success in the future, with a voice like she has she deserves to continue to do well! best wishes Sing

I'm afraid John Lennon's Imagine would spoil it for me. I hate that song with a passion. I certainly hope Hayley never sings it!

Connie's tour of the Far East is nearly done. In the last few weeks she's performed in Taiwain, Hong Kong, the Philippines, and Indonesia. Below is Connie's wonderful performance of 'Amazing Grace' from a few days ago. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FcZ-Cf7hzI
