The Vocal Show #2 - Tomorrow Is Another Day

Wednesday 25th October 2023 06:41 - 07:00 BST

A series devoted to experimenting with sound using the human voice by vocalist Amanda Brooks.

In this second episode, main characters: 'Red', the expletive, naughty, sweary ventriloquist puppet, and 'Laid Back Lewis' who, although is a good friend to Red, often suffers at the hands of puppet Red's 'gobby' abuse.

Both characters take part in a famous car race in front of a talking, whispering and disbelieving audience. The story continues with a series of random sketches and scenes which are often a part of the narrative, however, often, they are not...

All characters heard in Brooks 'Vocal Show' compositions are Brooks's own voice disguised by removing her own vocal characteristics e.g. frequency, timbre, tone, formant, amplitude and pitch, in order to ventriloquise a multitude of characters, speech characteristics and personas far removed from her own.

Tomorrow Is Another Day was recorded and written by Brooks at Bolt Hole Studios, Hastings, East Sussex, England.

Lead Vocals and percussion: Amanda Brooks, Vocals: Vicky Tawamana, Guitar: Karl Mee, Keyboard: Terry Keen, Bass: Steph Bennion, Drums: Jay Maplesden.
