A little backgound on what brings me to be here...

My musical life started in the disciplined but narrow world of classical music. In my teens I had several powerful group musical experiences that looking back I would class as genuine peak experiences, and these lit a fire in me, setting my direction for the next 15 years.

I was lucky enough to study and train at the Royal College of Music in London before doing a masters in jazz composition and performance, after which I stepped out into the world as a freelance musician. However, after around 10 years I had lost the meaning, enjoyment and purpose that had initially carried me into the profession, and I knew I had to stop. From one day to the next I put my life as a musician down and went an entirely different professional path. But I knew that music would come back to me when the time was right. Another decade or so later - with a whole lot of life in between - here I am.

Most of the music I play is in ceremonial, shamanic and ritualistic contexts, but there is something about the sacred chaos of raves, parties and festivals that I experience as one of the highest forms of collective beauty. It is into these spaces that I offer the music that I share here.

Thank you for being here, and for taking the time to read this. And feel free to get in touch ❤︎
