New music for you for the weekend.
A compilation of pieces recorded on a Keybird Instruments X1 piano 🎹
My piece ‘Düssel’ leads the compilation and was inspired by and born/improvised whilst performing in the German city of Düsseldorf.
Hear it here:
Music fans are the lifeblood of the music industry, but they rarely get much attention across the sector.
In my latest article, I've written in praise of the music fans who consistently go above and beyond, and why, from an artists' perspective, they truly are the most important thing.
A new month brings about upcoming tour dates across the UK.
I’d love to see you at one of these!

This weeks’ post on my Substack page The Cut Through shares the beginnings of something new.
It’s so tempting to only share things we make when they are finished and polished.
Here’s an attempt to break that down a little…
Hey Bluesky ✨
My Substack is about conversation, connection & community through music, and an important element of this is sharing WIP’s.
I think artists across many disciplines often feel pressured to only ever share finished work. Tomorrow I’ll be sharing something I’ve been working on this week
Thanks, Lou! ❤️

My parents come over on a Monday (which is our bin day) to look after our baby boy, and my Dad’s first comment to me this morning was:
“I’m impressed with your bin discipline, it’s always there ready each week. I’m proud of you.”
