About Me

This is my first live Youtube video: "Pick me up from the floor," one of the singles from my forthcoming album. The song is about how wonderful it is to have a partner or friend in your life who'll be there for you. I recorded it in a cupboard in a Castle in Bretagne, France where I went to sing at my friend's wedding.

***HAPPY STREET plays sweet POP and has a dream of living on a street where everyone is Happy. We have been there once, just to visit! We want to go there again! All the wallpapers have a scent of a cottage in the country side and the lamps are a little bit dusty but the early summer light that slips in through the window makes us happy.***
***'I just have to admit that all my songs are in a way love songs. Love for this life and the people I meet, the films I see, the music I listen to and the sports I play. Love for skiing in the alps and playing volleyball on the beach, scoring goals for my local football team in London and to better my time on my nxt half marathon. If I can keep having lovely people in my life, continue to write and play music and enjoy sports I will continue to be happy and express my love for life through music.'***
