LANDMARQ From their FB Page:
It is with a very heavy heart and great sadness that we have to report that, following a long-term illness, our great friend Tracy Hitchings has passed away!
Most of all, Tracy's strength was her voice. A wonderful singer, she received a number of accolades and awards over the years, including twice winning 'Best Female Vocalist' by the international readers poll of the UK-based 'Classic Rock Society' magazine (1995 and 1998).

Very sad news. Loved her voice. It is sad to realize we never get to hear new music from her. 
yet you still have time!

Oh, really really sad.... Cry

Saw her perform some great sets with Landmarq, both at the CRS and Whitchurch back in the day. She was a very warm and engaging frontwoman who loved her music.

If any of you get the SE of Entertaining Angels, there's a really fun bonus of her talking to a band mate who's stuck in traffic and late for rehearsals... warm and big-hearted.

RIP Sweetheart and thank you for the music... Cry

She was an amazing vocalist.  I was listening to an old compilation CD from Prog Magazine yesterday when a Landmarq song came on.  I immediately recognized her voice.  It's very specific.
This is very sad.

Saw Landmarq live a few years back, didnt really know what to expect but Tracy had a great voice and was, as has already been said, a warm and engaging performer who gave it her all. Very sad news and my thoughts and condolences go out to her family and friends.
