ABOUT
''I travelled to California as a teenager and fell in love, not only with America, but also with
country music!
Inspired by this experience, I started writing my own songs.
I worked a variety of day jobs including touring with an Independent Theatre company.
Eventually I began performing my songs live.
In 2018, I released my first U.S.A. Single 'Steel Horse' with Nashville based
record label -'SSM Nashville' and performed at the 'CRS' - Industry Showcase
at the Omni Hotel, Nashville.
The video for 'Steel Horse' was released to Country music TV stations and was taken up by
Heartland TV, Country Fix and a variety of TV stations across U.S.A.
In the U.K. Single "I'm Fine" reached No.3 in the UK Country iTunes Chart & No.2 in the Belgium
Country iTunes Chart.
'Steel Horse' expanded into the larger markets & entered 'The Music Row' Country Breakout Charts
in 2019, the only British Artist in the Chart! I also returned to Nashville to perform again at 'CRS',
this time, hosted by Warner music.
In the UK, 'Steel Horse' reached No.2 in the British & Irish Hotdisc Charts & was taken up for play
in various fashion stores across Switzerland.
My next release through SSM Nashille, ''Gone'' also entered the 'Music Row Country Breakout
Charts' U.S.A. in 2020.
I spent 2022 writing my new album and will be recording with some amazing Nashville
musicians later this year. Exciting news to follow!''
