I trained Classically on viola, violin and piano. Qualified and left Trinity college of Music, London, to forge my own form of creative expression through music. Managed to find and join a pop band who thought a viola player was exotic! Progressed into writing for and playing with my own band which was successful on the London gig scene. Also worked as a busy studio session player…mainly on viola. No name dropping here though...
Written music for two Channel 4 films, TV ads, Contemporary Dance, Film, and other ongoing commercial ventures.
I now run London's leading mobile massage company, Exhale and enjoy teaching a wonderful family of music students!
At present, I am interested in writing lyrics about many subjects. ….. green and environmental issues, animal rights, human rights, personal/planetary growth, spiritual stuff!, veggie/vegan issues, etc etc. Oh yes, almost forgot, love…
Also pushing the boundaries with the music. There's hints of Classical, Indian, Celtic, Minimalist, Baroque, Middle Eastern etc alongside experimental electro/acoustic pop.
Many thanks to my inspiring, insightful, ridiculously talented singers. The pitch perfect gentleman, Giles Pilgrim Morris, counter tenor on 'The Flower'. Sultry songstress, Samira Mohamed on 'This Day', 'I Will Shine' and 'Power of Now'. Glamour-Puss, Olivia Suki Brown on 'Einstein' and the gorgeous Stella Davies on 'Blackbird'
I am looking for PRODUCTION!! and /or an imaginative and superb drum/beats person who can experiment in any genre…..look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks for listening and come back soon as the tracks will change periodically.
Kiss kiss.
xx

Thank you for your comment and your very kind words! Life is full of meaningful events. I have been seeing 11:11 for many years now at the times I was feeling worried about life. It came as a sign and affirmation of the spirit in my life. Please tell me more about its meaning.
