Savannah Knight -The Story So Far
She has an interesting story. She is the daughter of a bishop and it's her mother that is the bishop. In fact, becoming the first female bishop of Sheffield's Shiloh United Church was controversial at the time.Savannah's youth has been spent struggling through a lot of hardship as she watched her mother suffer from domestic violence. She spend her childhood moving to and from homeless shelters around the country. There were many times that she could have gone off the rails and chosen a different path but she didn't. When she was given an opportunity to leave the UK and start a fresh, she grabbed the opportunity with both hands and moved to live with her aunt in Harlem. There she worked as a hairdresser alongside Blu Cantrell who encouraged Savannah to reach for the stars!
Savannah has gone on to perform backing vocals for Jocelyn Brown and R&B superstar Joe and is now independently releasing her new single and debut album. The single, 'Sexification' features Frankey Maxx who featured on Raghav's top chart hit 'Angel Eyes'. The new single has a great remix by RIffs & Rays which is climbing the dance charts and club charts .
