  • Bio

    CJ is a full time teacher by day (music specialist at a special needs school), musician by night, workshop leader at the weekends and a single mum 24/7!!! ...... A singer song-writer, cj also plays keyboards/ piano, guitar, sax, flugel horn/ trumpet & specialises in the drum kit/ percussion. ...... During her drumming days, cj did the usual thing of playing at festivals & the London venues (12 Bar Club, The Verge, Cairo Jacks, Borderline, etc.) and also supported Suzanne Vega, Cast & the Lightening Seeds. Although still drumming, cj decided to concentrate on her own stuff a few years ago. ...... Since the decision to go solo, cj still plays a few of the London venues, some festivals eg. Reading, Cambridge, has co-written with Mark Joseph and signed a recording deal with RMS Records in 2007. ...... Now independently, recording her debut solo album, cj can be found gigging up and down Kent/ London or running open mic nights, running African Drumming workshops (has played in West Africa), teaching music privately & doing session work when got a spare minute!! ...... Apart from music - cj is a keen surfer & ex-county/ ex-international cricketer (Kent & England 'B'). She has toured in New Zealand, is a qualified coach & now plays cricket for the women's MCC team. ...... She hopes you'll like her tunes when the album is finished, but until then, has put some very un-finished & very un-mixed tracks on here!! :-) Cheers xx ...... ...... ..CJ's Facebook Profile.. ..
