South West based musician, producer, designer founder and frontman of Gum Soul. I have recently graduated from Bath Spa University with a BA (Hons) in Commercial Music. For the last 5 years I have been honing my production skills, producing both band work as well as individual music, with a fascination of sound and sound manipulation. As a founder of Gum Soul my interest of both social media, design and business have developed greatly, with a good understanding of the music industry and the perils that entail when starting and developing a band.
I have recently completed a 10 day work placement as Assistant Event Manager for Bath Festivals which opened my eyes to the world of event management and what goes into sustaining any given event.
With over 12 years of guitar playing experience under my belt I have been able to develop within many genres of music, having played in heavy outfits as well as neo soul and pop. As a musician I have had the opportunity to play on both larger scale stages and events as well as smaller venues all around the country, and not short of experience of playing in the live sector.
