Introduction: I am a professional Piano Accordionist, Singer, Pianist, Dance Caller and arranger/composer from the UK, now based in Greater Boston, MA. I have been recording and performing with my own bands and as a session musician now for over 15 years.
I am classically trained (since the age of 6) and specialize in Folk, Celtic and Traditional music (I gained a degree in Folk & Traditional Music) & have a love of singer-songwriters, pop, rock and children's music + others.
As a session musician I have provided recordings and arrangements for educational programs, theatre, audiobooks, film, albums, games, TV & more.
I perform songs and tunes from around the United Kingdom and America with a great depth of knowledge of the tradition. I have become known on the folk scene for my rhythmic dance-able accordion style, strong voice and fun and engaging stage presence. I regularly perform concerts, dances and community events for all ages, and tour across the US, Canada and UK.
