 Happy New Year!

2025 looks busy. I've just had to reschedule some recording for the second time. 

I'm organising a video trailer, (which is a sentence I never thought I'd utter) and I'll put it on here when it's finished.

A really nice thing happened in 2024. Back in July, I was awarded the 2024 Solo Instrumentalist of the Year Award at the Buxton Fringe! It was an honour and was proud to be able to add it to my leaflets for subsequent concerts.
