My Dad maintains I was found under a gooseberry bush, and he should know. I grew up in Sussex, then further up in Gwynedd.
Most of the songs here are one take demos or live recordings.

I am a folk acoustic performer and songwriter living Wales. I accompany my voice with a percussive guitar style derived from British Folk-Roots and Afro-Latin influences.

I began playing guitar and singing 37 years ago at age eleven, playing in numerous folk and rock bands and performing solo until my thirties when I developed a passion for Samba percussion music.

Ten years ago I returned to guitar after an accident and found that I could unite these styles of music into a new fusion, playing percussion on the face of the guitar. I found myself writing and recording songs to satisfy the potential in this style, lyrically drawing upon the long influence of the British folk tradition I was brought up listening to.
Performance highlights include: Support to O'Hooley and Tidow in North Wales(September 2015); Festival Number 6 (Sept. 2015); Conwy Feast (Oct. 2015) Something Else in the Dean Up North (July 2015); Support to Leatherat in Temple Hewerdyke (June 2015); Bangor Pulse Festival (June 2015; Wakestock 2014; The fringe at Cropredy- Fairport Convention's Annual reunion (2014).
