About Me

"To arrive on the scene from nowhere and produce an album of quality material like this is quite extraordinary, this girl really is a name to look out for." Maverick
"It's rare to find a new name emerging so fully formed." Netrhythms
'a wonderful album' - Bob Harris BBC Radio 2

I was born and raised in Bolton, England - a rainy mill town in the north west. I play a red J200, I like cowboy boots, Cath Kidston, flocked wallpaper, tea, scented candles, fairy lights, notebooks, everything about autumn, all things coastal, trains, long journeys and maps.
I spent July 2007 in Nashville recording my debut album which will be available soon. The tracks on my player are taken from there. I had the honour and privilege of playing with some fine musicians.
