SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm a singer/songwriter. Acoustic guitar singing songs with most influence from folk then broadening out with indie-folk, folk-pop, Americana.
Will be releasing my 2nd album in April 2024 and am looking for a bass player and a percussionist to join the launch gig in London and beyond if you are free and willing!

I write and sing and perform for the love of it and for the love of telling the stories that my songs tell. AND I'm wanting to build up my fanbase and listeners in the real world and online and hopefully start earning more from my music.

I want to create beautiful, fun music and give the songs and music all that they deserve with regards to instrumentation.

I'm also a kit drummer, Cajon player and Bodhran player. I've had almost 20 years experience playing with blues/jazz, rock, pop, cover and Irish folk bands. As well as covers and musical theatre.
