About Me


Hey, thanks for stopping by, lovely to have you here :) It all started to take off for me after I graduated from Uni. I was 'discovered' busking on Manchester's Market Street by the MEN newspaper, entered BBC 5 Live 'Busk Idol' competition and won with my guitarist Ben Williams. Since then I've had some amazing opportunities- performing at the Big Issue Unplugged gig at London's Brixton Academy, singing my song entitled My Lord on BBC1's Songs of Praise show, recording at Abbey Road Studios, going on Uktv Gold's 'Wogan; Now & Then' and performing across Europe with multi-platinum selling recording artist Chris de Burgh. It's been pretty awesome!I'm a 23 year old singer-songwriter and I love being able to do music.I'm currently recording my first album and I get to perform lots too which I love. You can see me singing with guitarist Ben Williams and my 8 piece band the Truetones all of whom met whilst studying on the Popular Music and Recording BA Hons degree at Salford University.Check out the gig listing for upcoming gigs!
