Bio

“Elegant, soulful, powerful…” the words of Will.I.am as he described Wayne’s rendition of ‘The Man in the Mirror’, most famously performed of course, by Michael Jackson.

Praise and recognition on the Voice UK 2018 might have introduced Wayne as a contemporary artist with a universal appeal, but it certainly doesn’t do enough to define him.

Wayne’s voice is emotive and motivational, powerful and poignant.

Behind the beautifully seasoned tones of his voice though, stands a humble and modest, yet quietly confident man, with a burning passion for music and song that stretches throughout the wonderful city of Manchester and reaches the grateful ears of the world.

Having founded the internationally acclaimed gospel choir ‘Manchester Inspirational Voices’ in 2006, Wayne has touched the lives of hundreds of Mancunians, who have joined, rehearsed and performed under his dedicated leadership and master class orchestration.

Capturing hearts and captivating minds.

From humble beginnings, singing his heart out every weekend in church as a child, Wayne has followed the road his voice has forged for him, the road that he was always supposed to take. He attended Brunel University, studying a BMus in Music and Art, where he was awarded with the prestigious Sheridan Instrumental Prize for Outstanding Singing and Musicianship along the way.

The road has led him to some beautiful places around the world and allowed him to meet some incredible people too. Wayne has performed alongside Brit Pop idols Blur and has taken to the stage in front of millions of worshippers in Krakow, with Pope St John Paul II amongst the esteemed attendees. As part of the Kingdom Choir, Wayne helped to create a musical landscape that will be remembered for decades, whilst performing at the Royal Wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Whether he is in front of his beloved choir, or performing his masterful renditions of Nat King Cole, Wayne gives it everything. His passion and love. His heart and soul.
