The Music of Carole King with Special Guest Victoria BeeBee (EP73)

Carole King stands out as one of the most talented songwriters of her era. Not only is she a gifted performer in her own right, but her music has also been coveted by superstars such as James Taylor and Aretha Franklin. Her compositions have remained timeless, enjoying widespread popularity for over five decades. Boasting more than 5 million monthly listeners on Spotify alone, the enduring attraction of Carole King's music is evident. Team Derringer welcomes the talented Victoria BeeBee as their special guest to delve into Carole King's iconic music. 

Victoria is a multi-talented and gifted singer, songwriter, recording artist, producer, and vocal instructor from London, England. (And wow, does she have some pipes!) Victoria joins hosts Laura, Alton, and Paul to navigate through her favorite selections from Carole King's extensive repertoire.

Victoria recounts her global touring experiences with Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel, offering a glimpse into life as a Cockney Rebel.
