Right from the start of her career Marianne Segal has been leading the way. Not long after she joined a band, who's line up included Danny Kerwin later apart of Fleetwood Mac, she was singing regularly at a local pub on Sunday Evenings.
Practice was in the basement of her parents shop in Battersea the microphone came from an old telephone. Three years later she was performing on her first television programme.
She met up with a guitarist called Dave Waite and it wasn't long before a duo was formed. Marianne, extraordinarily talented, and a gifted writer. Dave an excellent musician and a craftsman of the guitar. In fact as a young boy he and a friend got so involved with the instrument that they tried to make one, sadly it collapsed as they tried to tune it.
The late sixties and early seventies were heady days Marianne and Dave worked and worked and they worked so well that they caught the attention of Dick James. DJM (Dick James Music) was just starting up and they were hungry to find talent two of the artists they signed were Elton John and Marianne Segal.
Jon Miller, Roger Hand and Rod Edwards entered the stage, Jon as Roger and Rod formed a management team and Rod also became a member a new band Jade. Dave Waite, Rod Edwards and Marianne Segal.
