Artist & Artistic Consultant | Composer | Vocal Architect

I am an Artistic Consultant, Composer, and Vocal Architect creating original vocal work and participatory performances across the contemporary music industry, education, and cultural sectors.

For over 30 years, I have created vocal work that fuses artistry, collaboration, and community — from international stages to grassroots movements. My practice spans composition, curation, performance, collaboration and the development of artists and ensembles operating at a high professional level within the contemporary music industry.

I am currently expanding my artistic practice through Arts Council England’s Developing Your Creative Practice funding, developing new theatre-based work that brings together voice, composition, movement, improvisation, technology and multi-instrumental musicianship, with a view to presenting my first original theatre piece, Choral and Cellular, in Autumn 2026.

Artistic Practice

Original Composition & Commissions
Original choral and solo works rooted in human connection and cultural identity.

Performance
Live work as a singer-songwriter and collaborative artist.

Vocal Arranging
Vocal arrangements for artists, bands and vocal ensembles.

Artistic Direction

I create and curate vocal-led artistic projects that bring intention, collaboration, and creative voice to the forefront. As creator of Enormous Vocal Ensemble (EVE) — a participatory performance concept — I have developed work with Brooke Combe and Joan As Police Woman, and am preparing a new EVE presentation with Amahla for International Women’s Day 2026. Alongside this, projects such as Folk to Folk reflect my ongoing interest in storytelling through song and cultural connection. Across all of this, I work as composer, vocal arranger, and artistic director, shaping each project from idea to performance and placing the human voice at the heart of artistic expression.

Creative Leadership and Governance

I have contributed to governance and strategic work across organisations including:

• Liverpool Philharmonic Hall - Trustee

• Liverpool City Region Music Board - Trustee

• Black Music Action Group - Chair

• 20 Stories High - Vice-Chair

I also co-authored the BLM Music Manifesto (2021).
