My first tour is over. Was lovely to sing my songs... hear tunes written on my little keyboard brought to life by fantastic musicians, and connect with some truly scrumptious audiences.

Can I do it all again soon please?!

Thanks to all the venues and players and everyone who came along!

This is it kids! Blue Sky Now is out in the wild. It really does take a village and this album has allowed me to cover a lot of musical and emotional ground and growth.

There are many thanks and I'm so so sorry if I've forgotten you but here goes in no particular order. With love and gratitude

This is the intro - part of the amazing & lush strings arrangement that the wonderful Paul Edis wrote for us, featuring Debs White & Dave Larkin on violin, Reiad Chiba on viola and Julia Graham on cello. All produced by Jamie McCredie who also got to play his ukulele! Stream it from May 30th!

My next single, out on May 30th, is another track from my forthcoming album Blue Sky Now.

This is Cobwebs & Lace, written with the lovely Emily Phillips. Itโ€™s all about childhood memories and finding your independence as you grow.

Astrud Gilberto - growing up I had a Brazilian friend, so was lucky to be introduced to lots of bossa nova records. I love this era of music, and Astrud is the queen. Astrudโ€™s tone is so light and I really like that it feels sophisticated rather than overly saccharine.

Nancy Wilson - I am late to this party, and what a party it is. Such soulful and beautiful singing. She is up there as one of my favourite vocalists now.

Chet Baker - I love how much character he has in his voice. He doesnโ€™t chase โ€˜the pocketโ€™ for his groove, but allows his melodies to float over. He interprets so many standards and really makes them his own, almost like they are his original tunes, they feel so personal.

Ella Fitzgerald - there is a reason she is considered one of the greatest singers of all time. Her scat is brilliant. Her phrasing is brilliant. Her tone is wonderful. Iโ€™ve never heard her sing anything that isnโ€™t exquisite

Itโ€™s #InternationalJazzDay so I thought Iโ€™d celebrate five of the greats that I have taken huge inspiration from. Firstly Bill Evans. His playing makes me feel things - itโ€™s emotional and beautiful, it taps into something higher than us.

Here's my gig report from last Saturday, the first gig in my 2025 tour, in Oswestry at the Hermon Arts Centre, a behind the scenes look at what it's like to be a touring musician! If you're coming to Glossop this Saturday, or Woking or Matlock Bath later in May then I'll see you there!

My new single โ€œOne Precious Lifeโ€ is out this Friday.

My whole album is the most personal my songwriting has ever been, so I thought youโ€™d like to know a little bit about what prompted me to write this one.

Presave now & play on Friday! ditto.fm/one-precious...

While Iโ€™ve been planning what merchandise/merch I should be taking on tour, I've also been loving the doll in a box trend Iโ€™m seeing everywhere. I donโ€™t think these would sell (if they really existed), & my merch budget isnโ€™t big enough to justify actually making them! Would anyone really buy one?!

We all want to express ourselves, and in songwriting, I find a connection with myself, the universe, and hopefully others, also on this human journey.

A big shout out to the cowriters on my album Blue Sky Now, which is out June 27: Emily Phillips, Michael Garvin, Henk Pool & Jeff Franzel!
