Alan Mann studied classical piano as a child, playing piano and singing songs from musicals with his mother. He remembers that one Christmas his Aunt and Uncle bought him a huge box of second hand Juke Box records. He thought this to be an unusual gift but these records introduced him to lots of different music and he played them for many years. Alan performs a variety of music from many genres with the aim of providing musical memories for everyone, encouraging his audience to join him in singing their favorite songs.
