I grew up surrounded by music so it’s always been the biggest thing in my life. My dad (Richard) is a guitarist/artist/composer and my mum is essentially his manager, they’re the only people I know who’ve been able to sustain a career in the music industry completely independently without having access to some secret pot of gold. This is undoubtedly because of child labour: I’ve engineered, produced, lighting and sound techied, and generally slogged gear around long before I did my GCSE’s. It’s been great! I am one of four and my siblings (Rooney, Daisy, & Felix) and I have performed since I cant remember when, originally for the cute factor on stage but we all learnt instruments from about five and now we all go on tour together every December. 

I’ve played a range of genres. The Christmas tour is a mix of folk, choral music, baroque, medieval tunes, carols, and Christmas hits. I’ve also been in a jazz band doing stuff like Watermelon Man, a rock band  doing your typical Arctic Monkeys covers, and Orchestras that toured Italy and Poland playing classical nonsense. My music taste is also a bit random and all this helps to really confuse me but sometimes also to write songs I really love.
