'Sing-and-fling' is exactly what it sounds like; a mixture of Burlesque strip tease and live vocals. Harking back to the heyday of Burlesque, the 'sing-and-fling' was popularised by Gypsy Rose Lee, but is practised by only a handful of performers now.
Cherryfox®'s particular brand of 'sing-and-fling' combines classic vintage glamour with 80's alternative musical influences. 'Sing-and-fling's can be performed as single acts or as 3 track sets. With ten years experience as a professional vocalist, Cherryfox® has a vast repertoire covering many musical genres. Custom sets can but put together to perfectly suit your event.
Stand alone 'Sing-and-fling' acts
Dark sensual acts
‘The Predator’
Performed to an instrumental version of ‘Lullaby’ by the Cure, with live vocals.
In this ‘sing-and-fling’ piece, Cherryfox® plays both the deadly ‘Black Widow’ and Her fearful, yet entranced, victim. The ‘Black Widow’ is on the prowl and Her shivering prey awaits the arrival of the deadly beauty, with a lush mixture of fear and anticipation. Our carnivorous villainess always hits her mark and Her complicit prey is more than grateful. A dark act that features an unsettling blend of classic femme noir glamour and gothic villainess.

‘The Executive’
Performed to an instrumental version of ‘Queer’ by Garbage, with live vocals.
In this ‘sing-and-fling’ piece, Cherryfox® plays the ‘Power Bitch’ - She might be a wealthy executive or perhaps an executive escort, the reading is up to the audience. She is the devil on your shoulder, rationalising and permitting you to indulge in your base urges, the siren of your dark side encouraging your indiscretions. With threatening strength, She bids you “take a look at Me… let Me dirty up your mind…” A dark act that blends sensual ‘Dynasty’ glamour with aggressive indie angst.

‘The Addicted’
Performed to an instrumental version of ‘Tainted Love’ Marilyn Manson arrangement, with live vocals.
In this ‘sing-and-fling’ piece, Cherryfox® is a woman addicted to love who struggles with, and ultimately succumbs to, the passion and pain felt in a destructive relationship. This piece was designed for The Festival of the Erotic Arts, combining the concepts of ‘hard and soft, pleasure and pain’. A dark act aesthetically inspired by a combination of 1920's sirens like Louise Brooks, and 80's punk military styling.

'The Vixen'
Performed to an instrumental version of 'Feed My Frankenstein' by Alice Cooper, original 'dirty swing' arrangement, with live vocals.
In this 'sing-and-fling' piece, Cherryfox® is the good girl gone bad. Paying tribute to Her B-movie heroines, She invokes the spirit of Dracula’s Lucy Westenra post transformation: manipulative and hungry. An upbeat Rock act with costuming inspired by Alice Cooper and promo photographs of Yutte Stensgaard, leading lady in 'Lust for a Vampire', reputedly the worst Hammer Horror ever made.
