Freddie Mensah is fast becoming a rising star on the entertainment circuit. His distinctive and unique vocal sound and song-style, a mixture of classic soul and R&B with a twist of gospel could be described as Motown for the 21st century.
His performances have been described as exciting and entertaining with a good choice of popular songs and audience participation.
Freddie’s influences include soul greats such as Lionel Ritchie, Luther Vandross, Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston and was recently described in “The Stage” as “a sure fire audience pleaser!”
