Party On The Pitch 2024

Last but certainly not least we can announce our final singer!

Sarah Louise 🎶🎤

Here’s a little bit about Sarah in her own words.

“I first found a love for singin when I was 2 years old and sang Whitney’s Greatest Love Of All with my dad on karaoke.
From then I entered and won numerous singing competitions around the country. I started singing professionally when I was 15/16.

In 2003 I teamed up with Ricky Graham Leisure and travelled the country performing at WMC’s, weddings, birthdays, comedy nights, holiday parks and casinos.

I have also performed to crowds of over 25,000 people at Huddersfield Rugby Stadium 3 times as the half time entertainment being filmed by Sky TV to be featured on Boots n All.

In 2017, I retired from the circuit and got my dream job. I still enjoy doing karaoke and local gigs every now and again”

We can’t wait to have Sarah sing down at our annual event!

Alos a huge thankyou to herself as she’s helped organise this years event!

See you there

Next to announce performing at Party On The Pitch 2024 is…..

Shaun Michaels

Shaun started singing around 30 year ago, just finding out the karaoke bars. Been a massive Elvis fan, he had an opportunity to sing at a friend’s birthday, and basically started it off. Getting the odd gig locally as an Elvis tribute, then joining up with a fellow tribute and started The Passion of Presley Tribute show, where we mainly raised for charity and local events.

Ditched the wig and went solo around 7 years ago and just built a varied genre of music. To start with travelling the length and breath of the country plying my trade. In 2019 he teamed up with Apple Entertainment and have been on the pub/circuit since. In February 2020 I went full time. However, Covid hit and put a stop to that.

Shaun’s a local lad and we are delighted to have him singing at our event.
