For the last two months I have working on a Visual Novel game called Keyframes. I wrote music for the game, along side another musician, and was in charge of writing the trailer music, loop-able music for scene changes, songs for the main character to listen to and the end music for the game.

You can now play a version of the demo at the link below, keep your eyes peeled as the game continues to develop.

I am a freelance performer-musician with skills in composing and song writing. Whilst studying Theatre and Professional Practice at Coventry University I became interested in the use of music within performance, exploring contemporary and experimental uses of sound within theatre. 

After Graduating from Coventry I, along with two other course members, created our own theatre company; Noctium. During his time with the company I held the position of Artistic Director and created and wrote the music for three productions; The Country Doctor, Animate and Hymns for Robots. Each project allowed me to explore different musical styles and further develop my playing ability and knowledge to tailor to each of the shows needs. Noctium performed around the UK on many small regional tours and took part in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2018, performing Hymns for Robots for the entire month. In 2019, after 5 years, I decided to leave the company to pursue other freelance opportunities. 

My time as a performer has taught me to devise, collaborate and perform as part of an ensemble as well as an individual having worked with many professional theatre companies around the UK. I also have a long standing relationship with Open Theatre company who collaborate with young people with learning disabilities (YPWLD). I was the sole song writer for their recent production ‘The Twisted Tale of Hansel and Gretel.’ 

Most recently I have been working on a Science Fiction podcast called ‘The People Outside.’ I wrote songs for five out of the six episodes within the first series and wrote one song for the second series, which has been released recently.

I always looks for new ways to write and create music, relish the challenge of performing in new and exciting environments and enjoy giving a show a unique sound. I specialise in guitar and bass up to a grade 5 level, and I can also play a range of string instruments, percussion and electronic instruments such as synthesisers. I am also able to use music production software such as Ableton Live.

This is a collection of my work including theatre shows, podcasts and everything in between.
