“My music is inspired by the nature that surrounds me. All of my songs are infused with natural elements in the lyrics – even when the subject matter is about more everyday subjects.”

“People tell me that my songs and music capture something of the atmosphere that is special to Northumberland and that they are reminded of peaceful walks on the sand and joyful moments spent in this special corner of the country.”
