Welcome to my world of creativity

Vocal & Artistic Consultant | Composer | Vocal Architect
I am an Artistic Consultant, Composer, and Vocal Architect creating original vocal work and participatory performances across the contemporary music industry and cultural sector.
The human voice, artistic integrity, and sustainability sit at the centre of my practice.
For over 30 years, I have created vocal work that fuses artistry, collaboration, and community — from international stages to grassroots movements. My practice spans composition, curation, performance, collaboration and the development of artists and ensembles operating at a high professional level within the contemporary music industry.
I am currently expanding my artistic practice through Arts Council England’s Developing Your Creative Practice funding, developing new theatre-based work that brings together voice, composition, movement, improvisation, technology and multi-instrumental musicianship, with a view to presenting my first original theatre piece, Choral and Cellular, in Autumn 2026.
Artistic Practice
Original Composition & Commissions
Original choral and solo works rooted in human connection and cultural identity.
Performance
Live work as a singer-songwriter and collaborative artist.
Vocal Arranging
Vocal arrangements for artists, bands and vocal ensembles.
Artistic Direction
I I create and curate vocal-led artistic projects that place intention, collaboration, and the human voice at the centre. As the creator of Enormous Vocal Ensemble (EVE), a participatory performance concept, I have developed work with artists including Brooke Combe and Joan As Police Woman, bringing individual voices into powerful collective performance.
Alongside this, projects such as Folk to Folk reflect my ongoing interest in storytelling through song, cultural connection, and lived experience. Across all of this work, I operate as composer, vocal arranger, and artistic director, shaping each project from idea to performance and holding the voice as both instrument and storyteller.
Creative Leadership and Governance
I have contributed to governance and strategic work across organisations including:
Liverpool Philharmonic Hall - Trustee
Liverpool City Region Music Board - Trustee
Black Music Action Group - Chair
20 Stories High - Vice-Chair
Creativity for social change, equity, and cultural integrity is central to my vocational practice.
Currently focused on composition, vocal-led projects, and consultancy for professional artists.
