I'm a composer, writer and guitarist, based in Brighton, UK.
My work has incorporated everything from orchestra to found sounds and electronica, storytelling and song.
I'm drawn to interdisciplinary work and have learnt a lot from collaboration with modern dance, poets and music theatre. I've set a lot of poems and worked on a few projects with the New York poet, Steve Dalachinsky.
At time of writing I'm setting part of a libretto by Bryony Lavery for opera chorus and have just completed a work that includes improvisation for string orchestra, titled 'Somehow The Miracle'.

Thanks for becoming my friend Pete. Really enjoyed your compositions and hope you had a chance to listen to mine. Drop me a comment and let me know what you think.
Ahh thank you Pete!! That means so much to me - my cds all sold out!! And people were still asking for more...I need to take more next time!
Yep, it was a truly cool night in the end, I really enjoyed myself - just got home. Crazy, you're still awake!?
Shall we try and meet for a cup of tea tomorrow perhaps? Name your place? I have to meet Amanda at The Troubadour for about 6pm but from 3pm-6pm I'm free!
Well, I wish I were a witch and could cast a spell on those damn phishing/hacking bozos!
And, alas, all I could do was change my password and say sorry for the stoopid fake comments they sent you about something I could give a hoot about – playstation?!
Anyway – here’s a real comment from me saying hello and hope you are fab.

How lovely to find a comment from you on my page! We must indeed meet next week - I have three gigs on...Monday, Tuesday and Thursday but I'll be around Wednesday and Friday afternoon if you're around, would be great to catch up!
I see you played at my old school Juilliard and would have loved to have seen the dance choreographed to your music. Like what I hear here (I wish I had hares as my back-up band, but I find they are rather jumpy).
All the best ~ Elizabeth

I trust the celebrations were jolly?!
Catch up soon. lv Amanda x
