About Me

I'm am a driven young person looking to pursue a career in music and the performing arts. I have already been working in the industry for approx. 5 years. I have a strong and interesting image (I have 30mm flesh tunnels for example :D) - I realise this will prevent a lot of work but as I'm most interested in music I didn't feel it an issue. I enjoy meeting new people and having a varied lifestyle and work experience.

Employment History & Experience

Young singer, but with experience. Gigging for 3 years, studio work for about 7 years (both voice over work and singing). Classically trained, yet versatile voice and can thus adapt to a variety of genres (namely classical, rock, pop, jazz, world, opera). I am in my last year of study at a specialist performing arts college where I have to take part in a diverse range of shows. I'm also working on a solo career and am part of a band as co-writer/arranger and second vox. I enjoy composing for film and electronically in my spare time. I have a strong image and personality and am most happy leading/fronting but also enjoy backing vocal work. Both of which I have diverse experience (in terms of genres and venues/events).

Recorded backing vocals for a Prodigy single
2nd vox/co-writer/arranger - Dec and His Diagrams
