Recent Graduate from Leeds College of Music. I studied jazz with classical, a performance based degree with my primary instrument being the trombone. Whilst at Uni, i fell in love with production and songwriting and ended up focusing a lot of my time doing that. as of right now, I'm putting beats and instrumentals up for sale on a platform called Beatstars, which allows you to either lease or exclusively sell your tracks.
I've performed all over the country, playing at festivals and venues with nationally acclaimed band "Abstract Orchestra" playing trubute sets to J Dilla and MF Doom. On one Occasion, i was even lucky enough to perform with Illa J, J Dilla's Brother.
As for studio work, I've played and arranged brass for Indie Pop band Embrace on their 2018 album "Love is a basic Need".
More recently, I have collaborated with Filmmaker Martin Cross on a short film called "The trials and tribulations of a girl named Alice" where i composed the score with Sound Designer Dominic Roocroft. This is something i really want to venture into. I've always loved music for film and sound design. i would love to connect with people on here to create a portfolio.
