With over 20 years of professional performing experience, music has always been at the heart of what I do. I’m an easy-going, versatile musician who prides myself on being adaptable, reliable, and a pleasure to work with — whatever the occasion. The flute is my primary instrument. I studied with Michael Cox and graduated from Birmingham Conservatoire, and have since built extensive experience across orchestras, chamber ensembles, concertos, theatre productions, jazz settings, and solo performances. From private recitals to providing upbeat background music for events, I am comfortable shaping performances to suit both formal and relaxed settings. Alongside flute, I offer solo piano and piano-vocal sets for weddings, private parties, and corporate events. From relaxed background music to lively party sets, I adapt the playlist to match your vision and create exactly the right atmosphere. I can also provide a baby grand piano shell, adding an elegant visual centrepiece and extra style to your event. I also perform in and manage a Billy Joel and Elton John cover band, offering a lively set of well-known classics when a fuller live band sound is preferred. I am also an experienced drummer and percussionist, having performed in orchestras, pantomimes, theatre productions, wedding bands, and as part of the house band for Warner Leisure Hotels. This multi-instrumental background allows me to bring flexibility and depth to any musical setting. Friendly, flexible, and easy to work with, I always aim to ensure that every event runs smoothly and is musically well judged.
