Originally from Scotland, I came down to Manchester four years ago to study
music at the University of Manchester. Now that I'm finished with uni I'm
looking to make my mark on the music industry. As well as singing and a bit
of guitar, I play saxophone, dabble a bit on the piano and I have grade 1 on
the violin! At the moment I am in St. Andrews looking for some gigs! Am planning on sending my demo off to a few management companies and hopefully that will lead to me getting signed! Here's Hoping!
I play fortnightly at Platform, the music night at the Byre Theatre in St. Andrews and am the resident musician at the Inn at Lathones. Apart from that I'm your average crazy ginger Scots girl who just loves to sing!
So if you like what you hear, spread the word around and tell your friends. If you want to hear more get in touch and I can send you my lastest demo and let you know when I'm next playing. I also love to work with other musicians of any genre so if anyone is looking for a jam session or wants to write some new material let me know!
Hey! Midget Gems ... haha! The new recordings are great ~:D (look that one has hair) Had any thoughts for a title for"untitled", or is that it's name? Woo, a name without a name, thats deep!
Hey Gems!! Your new tracks are soundin great!! Maybe we could get together sometime for a jam, we are practically neighbours if your still in St Andrews!! All the best to you and your music!! FIT TO FLY X

It seems like years since the last Moorfest happened and to be honest I think the weather was very much a factor in whether people enjoyed themselves or not. Some thrived in the mud whilst others wept until their dads could pick them up. Moorfest is still carving an identity for itself and in the three years that it has been established I think I can say that the one thing that most people love about it is the friendly atmosphere, and this gig is a good opportunity to meet up with friends that perhaps you haven't seen since the festival, to make new friends, enjoy quality music, get a flavour of Moorfest if you haven't already been and also to talk to the organisers in order to give your opinions on how to improve the festival.
KLEZMA TRIP - Are simply an awesome live band. Featuring the amazing musicians that are Giuliano Modarelli, Bill Laurance, Sam Hobbs and Joe these guys had a packed Brudenell dancing all night to infectious eastern grooves which blends aspects of funk, jazz, reggae and indian music into a medicine which you just want spoon after spoon of. Although they are yet to have there own myspace, you can get a flavour here:.. http://www.myspace.com/giulianomodarelli
VESSELS - These guys absolutely rocked Moorfest with mucho hardness and aplomb. They're always getting better, bigger and probably older too. Massive soundscapes, deliciously simple melodic guitar meanderings, vocals that haunt but are still comforting and an intensity that sucks you directly into their world. http://www.myspace.com/vesselsband
COWTOWN - Instant party merchants and connoisseurs of novelty, the Cowtown crew are like a reflex to an injection of arabic coffee directly into both cheeks of your bottom that remains long after they've finished. Skewed sharp guitar riffs, electro kitsch synths and sparse and hard rock drums is one way of summing them u
