Miss Dee, real name Vikki Davies, hails from Whitehaven in West Cumbria on the edge of the Lake District. She is 22 years old and has been singing professionally for 4 years. About 12 months ago, she entered a Showcase in Preston and the Concert Secretaries took her to their hearts and since then she has performed in most of the clubs in the Preston area so she will be familiar to many of you in the crowd today.. . In December, the Guild of Concert Secretaries paid her the highest accolade by voting her ‘Female Vocalist of the Year’. Miss Dee is no stranger to singing before matches as she has entertained the crowd before and after some of Whitehaven RLFC’s games.
She enjoys singing anything from classical to rock.
Vikki is keeping alive a family tradition; her grandfather and father are season ticket holders in the Tom Finney stand and her great grandfather was a big North End fan.
