With over 25 years of professional experience, Lisa Marie delivers an elegant and heartfelt tribute to the golden voices of the 1940s. Her show, “Nightingale: A Vera Lynn Story,” features a full 45-minute celebration of Vera’s most cherished wartime classics, performed with warmth, authenticity and stunning vintage style. It’s the perfect companion to Lisa’s established 1940s Wartime Show, loved by audiences across the UK.
Lisa’s versatile background spans Soul, Motown, jazz, pop and rock, yet she discovered a deep passion for 1940s harmony and nostalgia after performing with a vocal trio specialising in wartime melodies. Inspired, she dedicated lockdown to crafting a show that honours the era’s greatest entertainers including Dame Vera Lynn, Gracie Fields and The Andrews Sisters, with plenty of singalong favourites guaranteed to lift every heart in the room.
Lisa can tailor her performance to suit your event, combining eras such as 50s & 60s jazz / swing when required. Each show includes beautiful vintage visuals and authentic costume changes, transporting audiences back in time for a truly atmospheric and unforgettable experience.

Dame Vera Lynn is my icon and inspiration, with we’ll meet again beng my all time favourite song of hers
I have been singing professionally for 20 years and I created my wartime show in lockdown to portray my love of the 1940’s era
Every event is great but I most enjoy singing at 1940’s reenactment events , the atmosphere is great!
"We normally arrive 2 hours before the performance to set up. We normally perform 2 x 45 minutes or 2 x 60 minute sets. We’re happy to play a bit longer or shorter but we’ve found that these set times suit us and our audiences best."
We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply Close to the performance area.
We can learn songs if required
