Singer-songwriter and performer based in Manchester, working on original material with a strong live focus.
I’m looking to connect with musicians (keys, guitar, full band setups) to rehearse, perform live, and collaborate on gigs and sessions.
Open to project-based collaborations, acoustic sets, showcases and live performance opportunities rather than joining a band long-term — unless the musical fit feels right.
Influences span soul, R&B, pop, alternative and world music. Strong emphasis on musical chemistry, groove and live presence.
