my story
It all started when...
Ever since I was a kid, I have always wanted to write an album. I really enjoy song-writing on my guitar & keyboards and bashing songs into shape with my producer, and super-talented musicians for added magic. Now I am very grown-up and have run out of reasons not to, I have been working on my first studio album; applying for the ‘Women Make Music’ PRS fund has given me the motivation I needed – so here I am.
music I love
influences + Inspiration
Here are some amazing artists & songs that have floated my boat along the way, not an exhaustive, comprehensive list, just wanted to share who I love. When I asked myself, ‘What is it about other artists’ albums that I love?’, a common theme was that I completely adore singing along to all my favourite albums and really hope that when my album is finished, people will want to do the same to mine!

Rough demo tracks
Working on my album has been the most exhilarating, exhausting, frustrating, heart-bursting, mind-blowing, irritating and freeing thing I have ever done! Even after having children I have never stopped creating/writing songs and, now my boys are a bit older, I'm desperate to get cracking with it all.
I really want to show other women, especially mothers, not to give up EVER and prove that a 48 year old Mamma can write great songs that audiences will find inspiring and hopeful and joyful. Also, I would like my two boys to see that it is worth finishing creative things – the J O Y is in the slog of it all.
These tracks are ruff-mixes. Rough-demo work in progress!
