Rebeka and Regan were asked to sing on our record because of their ability as singers. This technique will always produce the best results, as long as all the singers are capable, consistent and communicative. I like to put all the singers around one microphone when recording backing vocals. “Backing vocal studio sessions on Hue and Cry album recordings are always very demanding of everyone involved, we all need to be on top of our game for them to be successful. Having seen the talent and commitment on offer by the students at the College and the level of expert tuition given by lecturers, all of whom are also in the industry, Greg was keen to give the students a chance at live studio recording. Not the first time Hue and Cry have been associated with the Faculty of Creative Industries at New College Lanarkshire, Greg has previously guest lectured for music students, sharing his in-depth knowledge and experiences of the industry. “Having witnessed Rebeka and Regan’s ability to work with complex vocal harmonies coupled with the tone of their voices, I brought them to the attention of Greg Kane of Hue and Cry.ĭespite the high pressured situation of recording in a professional environment, they both performed excellently and they were a real credit to the College – showing that their studies on the music course has made them industry-ready.” Their vocal skills were called upon by the iconic brothers after lecturer Yvonne, also known in the industry as Tippi, recommended them for the job after working as a backing vocalist with Hue and Cry for the past seven years.

It was really overwhelming to be singing alongside Hue and Cry and something that will stay with me throughout my whole career. I know that it will be really beneficial for me in my future career.” It is a really big deal for me and I am really proud to have been chosen. This wasn’t just a project for college or a gig in front of friends, this was working with professional musicians and legends! ![]() It was really nerve-racking as there was a lot of pressure. "I couldn’t believe it when I was selected to provide backing vocals for Hue and Cry – I was so excited to get into the studio with them and be part of something massive.
