About Me

____________________________________________________________ ______________________I’ve always loved music and found great solace in the piano and singing. I love dancing - I used to go out in a leopard skin cat suit, what was I thinking! (I loved that outfit actually, I'd still wear it now but it's gone a bit baggy...it's more Bagpuss now) . . . . . . . . . . Thankfully, technology has advanced and we can all make our tunes sound great in the privacy of our own homes. I’ve learned a lot over the past few years under my own steam and with some sound advice from musical friends. I write, produce and arrange original material - I really enjoy the whole process. I always think 'where there's a will there's a way'. I write for instrumentalists whenever possible and love the alchemy of improvisation - that's the best bit. Collaboration ideas are always welcome. Painting is one of my other loves, I've got a lot of raw energy for music and painting, they're natural safety-valves. It’s a great escape, I love this freedom. Hope you enjoy the results *!*
