Eddi Reader Interview

Throughout her career, Eddi Reader has been decorated many times by the music industry for her singing and songwriting abilities.

In this video, four young singers, who are at Cambridge taking part in a weekend of singing and songwriting sessions, put Eddi through her paces.
