My friend Bradley White-Dale, who has died of a heart attack aged 41, was a gifted singer who came third in the Greek version of the talent show The X Factor, in 2016, and was one half of the singing duo Stereo Soul that toured Greece as part of the X Factor winners’ show in the years that followed.
Earlier, when he performed at an open mic competition at the O2 in London, Gary Barlow declared Bradley’s performance a “vocal masterclass”. And in 2012 he made it to the bootcamp stages of the UK X Factor.
He performed at events at the Barbican, the Royal Albert Hall and the Royal Festival Hall in London, as well as in venues all over Greece, and in New York and Europe.
