I am a Bristol-based singer-songwriter, recording artist and performer of more than twenty years, and community music facilitator of 5 years, making music because I believe it can bring people together. Music is glue: it helps us feel our shared humanity, be present with one another, speak difficult truths, and hold both collective joy and grief. I am increasingly drawn to music's capacity to heal the disconnection of our time—from each other, from the natural world and from ourselves—and through songwriting, performance, improvisation and collective singing, I seek to create spaces where connection and belonging can emerge.

My work resists easy categorisation, drawing on echoes of folk, contemporary composition and improvisation. As a multi-instrumentalist, each album explores new territory, shaped by changing collaborations and by the landscapes and communities I have encountered through years of living and travelling between the UK, Europe and Japan. This same approach informs my work as a community musician and choir leader, where I write songs in response to the people and times I find myself in, creating music that is discovered together. Whether on stage, in the studio or in a circle of singers, I am interested in those fleeting, transformative moments when music becomes a gathering and brings people together.
