About

I am a British composer, producer, singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist with 20+ years of international touring and recording experience.

I am known for melodic sensitivity, strong arrangement skills, and the ability to deliver complete, production-ready music from my fully equipped studio. I am an experienced collaborator with artists, creators and production teams across pop, indie and multimedia projects. I have long-time touring experience as a bassist, bass synth player and backing vocalist for international tours and TV/radio performances, with credits including Lily Allen, Groove Armada, Roots Manuva, Tom Vek and Mika. I also contribute as a co-writer on tracks from Mika’s fourth studio album, and participate in studio sessions, arrangement development and creative pre-production.
