Pat said: “The last two Gig In’t Garage events were for a very special personal charity for Dolly Parton impersonator and personality vocal entertainer Carla Palmer who was struck down with stage 2 lymphatic cancer over two years ago.

“Fingers crossed she will be attending the event and like the trojan fighter like she is, living life to the full.

“So with longevity in mind for both Greta and Carla that is why we are holding this event.”
