My Music Background

I'm a singer/songwriter from Manchester, specialising in Vocals, Piano, Flute and Guitar. I am highly proficient on the loop pedal which loops all instruments and voice. 

I am available for weddings, functions, festivals, and more. Get in touch to book!


In 2018, I graduated from Salford University with a 1st Class Honours degree in Music. During this time, I specialised in composition and arranging in which I created a portfolio of arrangements based on well known Hans Zimmer soundtracks. I also have a collection of self-written songs, some of which were released as part of my 2019 album 'Brand New Day', with others yet to be released.

As a composer/arranger, I compose music for film/TV/short films. I write songs and create arrangements for bands/orchestra's. For enquiries, please get in touch!

Live Performances
