I am obsessed with arranging classical works with 21st century tech and collaborative inspiration.  I limit my active upload count to a rolling collection of my favs.

“Where philosophy dances, comedy flirts, and music refuses to behave.”

I create musical worlds where disco meets musical theatre, where romance turns comedic, and where Nietzsche whispers over a funky bassline.
My tracks blend storytelling, humor, bold energy, and emotional spark, crafted to surprise, tease, and make your heart do a little somersault.

From philosophical anthems to chaotic love stories, from comic disasters to empowering voices, every song I release is a tiny universe—
a place where you can laugh, think, dance, and feel all at once.

If you love music that’s playful but smart, spicy but artistic, soft but rebellious,
welcome to my world.
Turn it up.
Let the universe wiggle a little. ✨🎶

The Busketeers are a band like no other, known for their raw energy and diverse shows. Comprised of four talented musicians who are all singer-songwriters and multi-instrumentalists, they captivate audiences with their ability to harmonise and seamlessly swap instruments while delivering a unique sound that blends genres from all over the musical spectrum. Their passion for music is evident in every note they play.

The Busketeers originally formed on the streets of Plymouth, Devon, UK, where they quickly gained a reputation for their diverse performances and impressive musical skills. The band consists of Kendall Williams, Luke Engel (part of the band Wild Fenn), Matthew Gordon Price, and Olly Parker. Each member brings their own unique style and influences to the group, resulting in a sound that is both eclectic and cohesive.

Despite their success as a street band, The Busketeers quickly gained a following and began playing at local venues, eventually building a fan base that extended beyond their hometown. Their reputation as a must-see live act grew, and they were soon playing at festivals and venues across the country.

The Busketeers are set to release their album, "The Busketeers," in 2023. The album will showcase the band's impressive range of musical styles and their ability to seamlessly blend them together. From folk to rock to pop, "The Busketeers" is a testament to the bands musical prowess and dedication to their craft.

Since then, The Busketeers have continued to tour and release new music, building a loyal fan base along the way. They have played at some of the UK's biggest music festivals and stages, including Boardmasters, Plymouth Pavilions, Tunes In The Dunes, Leopallooza, Rock Oyster, Tunes In The Park, Rattler Fest, Little Orchard Festival and many more.

As The Busketeers continue to evolve and grow as musicians, one thing remains constant: their commitment to providing audiences with an unforgettable live experience.
