Trixie Whitley wants to be known as more than just the daughter of Chris Whitley. The good news for her is that I hadn’t even heard of her singer-songwriter dad, until I happened across her music on Spotify. The former child prodigy obviously inherited her father’s passion and talent for music, teaching herself guitar, piano and drums at a young age, and also dabbling in DJing and ballet. Like her father before her, she’s settled into a bluesy place, playing beautifully orchestrated blue-eyed soul with raw, emotional intensity. We’re looking forward to hearing *that voice* live, and some lucky readers will be able to join us. We have 2 x 2 tickets to giveaway – scroll down to find out how to win a pair.

I think having Quentin Tarantino as a dad would be really cool..!!
Hey guys
I was just about to write Woody Allen but after some consideration he just seems like a bad choice. So I’m gonna go with Bill Murray. He’s got to be the most amazing dad EVER!

Congratulations Vanessa, you’ve won 2 tickets to see Trixie tomorrow night.
Your name + 1 is on the gueslist, enjoy!
Wow, that’s exciting! Thanks!
I’d definitely choose Bill Murray as my dad – he is so calm and cool.Though I have to say that my real dad is the best I could ever imagine…
Congratulations Pia, you’ve won 2 tickets to see Trixie tomorrow night.
Your name + 1 is on the gueslist, enjoy!
I’d chose Nelson Mandela as my dad. Though absent for 27 years, he ultimately was able to help change a country and inspire the world.
Hi!
Me and my friends are visiting berlin between the 27th of feb and 4th of mach. Do you have any suggestions of what to do? I’ve been in Berlin a 2 times before and have done the most basic tourist stuff. I like art, dancing and good but cheap food!
Thanks!
Hi, guys!
If I had to choose a famous man to be my dad, I would like it to be Fela Ransome Kuti, the afrobeat pioneer, political activist, ladies man, and most awesome multi-instrumentalist out of Nigeria in the XX century. Aside, he reminds me somehow of my real dad, so it is quite cool.
That is very cool.
very cool indeed
I always always always wanted Jack Nicholson to be my dad, as i think he is the coolest bastard on the face of the earth. I recently got drunk and accidentally bought the full Live Aid on DVD, and then got drunk again and watched it, tweeting both Jack and Bette Midler after seeing this clip (around 1.40 when they are both on) and said they were my dream parents. They did not respond. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_xjTqIhShE
Good answer!
