With a classical music foundation in piano from age 5, and violin from the age of 8, I went on to play guitar as an accompaniment to my voice. I progressed into playing other styles of music including folk and jazz, and started to write my own material. I’ve learned to play a few other instruments along the way.

I have played in a number of folk bands including Short Stories and The Biggest Trio in the World, and at various folk festivals with Broken Ankles, an Appalachian clog dancing dance troupe. For over 20 years I played fiddle with ‘Ded Effnik’ a Ceildh band. I have also collaborated with ‘Sold As Seen’, a country/blues band.
