“A warm welcome to my website. Based in the small town of Whittlesey, in Cambridgeshire, I have been playing folk music professionally over 15 years now. I started playing the great highland bagpipes aged 10, and soon added many other instruments into my repertoire such as the melodeon and alto saxophone. I also sing occasionally and play ukulele!
I love sharing my passion for folk music with others, and I hope you will find everything you are looking for on my website. I am available to book for events of any size, as well as lessons. Thank you for visiting my website, and for your continued support.”
