About Me

Hi! Thanks for dropping by, nice to meet you!Growing up in Australia, I cut my musical teeth an early age performing with my parents. My very first recording experience was singing on Dave Hollis' album 'NZ Musical Animals' at age 10. From then on, I was hooked! After moving to Far North Queensland I began performing around the Islands of the Great Barrier Reef with my band 'Thelonius Funk'.Since moving to London in 1999 I've had the opportunity to work in many top bands playing venues all over England and Europe as well as recording vocal sessions for TV and Radio.Returning to my first love, soulful jazz, I love nothing better than putting a soulful twist to classic jazz standards.I'm writing, writing, writing at the moment! Recording in the New Year so look out for that! Am planning to return to my roots and get all folky on yo ass, organic stylee! Very exciting!Dx
