Drums, Other Percussion, Mandolin, Upright bass, Electronic Music, Harp.ABOUT
I am a singer-songwriter and guitarist looking for creative, experienced, expert level musicians to join my band.
Primarily looking for drums and other percussion to add rhythm to my current tracks and experiment with a chilled drum and bass flavor to some of my newer tracks.
Also interested in adding an electronica element to my sound
Alongside beautiful real strings - harp, violin, double bass, mandolin
My songs are original, pretty and authentic.
I have two festivals booked this summer HowTheLightGetsIn (https://hay.htlgi.iai.tv/) and Chilled in a Field (http://www.chilledinafieldfestival.co.uk/) so hoping to make contact asap.
Band currently consists of myself (lead vox and guitar), backing vox, violin and bass. We produce a very full and emotive sound together.

Breathe
BreatheI wrote this song around 5 years ago, in a Hotel room in Hungary, secretly pregnant! I added the last verse after the birth of our beautiful Son. With thanks to: Kait Farbon aka “one take Kait” for adding her beautiful harmonised violin parts Charlie Pyne for squeezing her Double Bass into a basement studio and adding such depth (www.charliepyne.com) Inty Paul for recording all the parts for me in his spare time Andy Young for Mastering (www.xpressduplication.co.uk) Becky Dell (www.rubybirdmusic.co.uk) and Dafydd James for performing this song live with me so many times :) xxx

My Friend Shelley
My Friend ShelleyIn loving memory of my friend Shelley. This is a recording of the song I sang at Shelley’s Celebration of Life, after she was laid to rest last year. It was written from the poem I gave her for her birthday in 2007 called ‘My Friend Shelley’.
