am a Northumberland based singer/songwriter guitarist currently resuming solo gigs having played regularly with Newcastle’s Tenth Avenue Band at festivals in England, Ireland and Germany until the summer of 2012.

I have two albums of songs, ‘Dancing with Shadows’ – produced by Rick Kemp (Steeleye Span’s Bass man) in 2001 and ‘Rough Around the Edges’ – 2008. They can probably be described as being in the contemporary folk genre.

In 2015 I played Maddy Prior’s Stepping Stones festival, BBC's Hadrian's Wall of Sound, Music on the Marr, Woolfest in the Lake District, Prudhoe Arts Festival, Redefest, The Alnwick International Music Festival, the Corbridge Festival, Baafest, The Allen Valleys Festival, Northern Roots and the Broadstairs folk week. At these festivals I have played, compered and delivered some very successful ukulele workshops which also led to performances.

At many of these festivals I do a mix of performing, workshops, workshop performances, and compering.
