Modern-vintage singer-songwriter. Sounds like “a Paul Simon, Eddi Reader, Paul Heaton get together at an Elbow gig with The National”.
Melodically driven songs built around a distinctive 12-string guitar, opening into warm, emotionally satisfying full-band arrangements.
Regularly playing live, solo, and with the band, I have supported acts such as Martin Simpson, The Black Feathers, Stick In The Wheel, TV Smith (The Adverts), Robb Johnson, Boo Hewerdine, Robert Vincent, Chris Helme, Joshua Ray Walker, Laura Jane Wilkie, 10cc’s Graham Gouldman.

“captivating, classy and high-quality” HURSTFolk Festival
