ABOUT

I’ve worked as a professional musician and composer playing piano/keyboards and percussion in pop and rock bands, jazz ensembles, piano and vocal duets, piano solo gigs and film score.

I’ve toured around the UK and performed in venues such as The Sage, Gateshead and The Cavern Club, Liverpool and festivals such as Washington Live and Stone Valley. I recorded my original song “The Town Where I Live” at Abbey Road Recording Studios, London. I composed a score a feature film “Two Graves” which won the British Urban Film Festival in 2018.

I currently work as a gigging musician, performing in pubs, festivals and scooter rallies across the UK with Northern Soul band “The Odels” and jazz and funk ensemble "Shalala", original rock band "Swanhuht" and piano and voice duet "Juilana & Sam" in the North East of England.
