Demos from London Fields – Out Now!

By |July 9th, 2021|Categories: News Archive|

Hello! It’s been a while!..

At the beginning of last year I spent a couple of days recording some new tracks/ideas at Buff Records in London Fields. A LOT has happened since then and I’ve been sitting on them for a while now..and so I thought why not release them into the world. So TODAY I have released 4 brand new acoustic tracks – ‘Demos from London Fields’. Head over to my online shop to purchase the tracks and homemade & signed hardcopies. You can also find it on Spotify, iTunes etc. 👍

Hope to see you later in the year at a few live shows.

Looking back on 2020…

By |December 31st, 2020|Categories: News Archive|

The year brought just 3 gigs & 3 online streams – but I savored every single minute. I also squeezed in 3 single releases plus a BBC Radio interview amongst it all!

It’s certainly been a year no one could have ever imagined, but it’s made me realise how much I love making & playing live music.

As always, I can’t thank you enough for supporting me through the year and I hope that we can all look forward to brighter times in 2021 – I’m sure of it 👍

New Single – ‘Turns to You’ – Out Now!

By |May 15th, 2020|Categories: News Archive|

Happy Friday and Happy Release Day!! I’m donating all proceeds to Haven House Children’s Hospice (a truly wonderful charity doing the most amazing work!) so please do check out the download/streaming links here…and if you wanted to give a little more then you can do so via my Bandcamp page. I’m unbelivably proud of this song and I’m so excited for you to hear it!

The song was recorded and produced by Jack Longman at Buff Records in London Fields back in September last year. I’m so thankful for Jack’s time & talent and for putting up with me after many hours in the Studio! He’s also just an all-round top chap (who just so happens to like my songs!). So that’s it, I can’t wait to play this song live when it’s safe to do so.. for now I hope you can enjoy it from your homes. Stay safe..
