EP Release

My debut EP  is available on Bandcamp today. The title track, “Selkie Child,” was also released today. You can hear the track immediately on Bandcamp and YouTube with a little video I put together. The track features the excellent Jas Scott on strings and cello. With the assistance of my talented producer, Ben Haynes, the EP includes a full multi-instrument sound including guitars, both acoustic and electric, harmonium, shruti box, cello, piano, bass and the celeste.

EP & LP Gigs

My friend Bex (Fawn Music) and I are planning a series of joint gigs in Derby, Wirksworth, and Sheffield over the next few months.

Fawn Music is from a sheep farm on the Scottish inner Hebridean island of Islay. She now lives in Derby and works as a Music Therapist. Growing up singing Gaelic, she now sings folk, classical, and indie songs with a deeply emotional and Celtic twist. Her album is coming out on October 18th, and you can now hear the title track, “Dear Music,” on all streaming platforms.

My EP is due to be released in early September, and as soon as I’ve posted the pre-orders, I’ll make both the CD and digital version available online.

The dates are as follows:

Sheffield, Nether Edge Bowling Green Club – Thur, 10th Oct 7.30pm
