STATUS QUO - ROSSI AND ESTRANGED DAUGHTER BONDED OVER LOVE OF MUSIC

The estranged daughter of STATUS QUO rocker FRANCIS ROSSI revived her relationship with her dad after jamming with him. The British guitarist left BERNADETTE ROSSI's mum when she was a toddler, and the 22-year-old only saw her dad once in 17 years because she lived with her mother in Ontario, Canada. However, after Rossi invited his lost daughter to his Surrey, southern England home two years ago (04), the pair have bonded over their love of music, with Francis producing Bernadette's debut album. She reveals, "I got a call out of the blue two years ago - Mum had given him my phone number. He asked me to come over. "He did things I would never have thought of. He has an ear for simple touches. The music helps us a lot, we found the similarities between ourselves. It's the small things. We both talk quickly, we're sticklers for punctuality and out work ethic is similar. "I do this thing where I click my fingers all the time and he does too. I've never seen anyone else do that before, so it must be genetic."
