An all rounded musician, I'm capable of bringing you up to speed in a variety of areas within the music industry. primarily a performer, I also compose and produce music for film and within the electronic music sphere.
From the start of my musical journey, I learned primarily classical piano, and did so until the age of 13, where I switched to studying jazz music. From here, I was accepted to join the Junior's course at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, where I got trained in learning how to perform with others, such as in a big band.
Having moved to the Edinburgh Napier Popular Music course in 2019, alongside the consolidation of my performance knowledge I started to teach myself electronic music production. Finding a niche in drum and bass, I have started to apply this, and my performance knowledge, together, using jazz influenced songwriting techniques to create pieces of music that have been signed to labels worldwide.
With multiple signings and international shows under my belt, and reviews from institutions such Discovery Music Scotland available, I'm confident I can guide you to create the music that you want to make. Join me as we explore a tailor made course for you, that can cover everything from the groundwork up: from note values and basic posture, up towards chords, chord extensions, modes, and how this can be used, if desired, to influence compositional techniques, and how we can think about band arrangements to help you explore your journey as a performer, producer, and composer.
