I’m very excited to be playing a set at the Herne Hill Music Festival on Sunday 11th Oct 2026 at 3pm 🙂🎸🩷

Full details here:

Also joining the stage will be Rita Tam, playing her heartfelt folk pop songs.

The gig takes place at the Brockwell Community Greenhouses (10min walk from Herne Hill train station) – so we’ll be immersed in the plants and nature, which will be a lovely environment to play and listen to music in.

I hope to see you there.

Here are two pieces from my set at Ammas birthday celebrations on Sat 5th Oct 2024, at the MA Centre in Bromley, UK. It meant the world to me to play some of my songs in Ammas honour. Both of these songs are very personal to me - and to play them as a form of devotion opens up a special place in the heart of the musician.

Thank you to the lovely people at the MA Centre for having me - Om Namah Shivaya 🙏💜

The songs (both by me)
God is Love
The Hymn of Bailey Avenue

I have the honour of playing a short set at Ammas birthday celebrations in Bromley (UK) at the MA Centre on Sat 5th Oct around 2pm, as a part of the cultural programme for the day.

I'm really looking forward to this special event - Amma has been a part of my life for some time now, and so playing here means so much to me 🙂🙂❤️❤️

This February, I’m running 100km to raise money for GOSH Charity. This will be approx 3.5km per day over February. Support a good cause this February by donating, and make a positive difference in the world! 🙂👍

I’ll be posting updates on my JustGiving page as I go on my runs – I may post updates daily or weekly.

Every day, more than 750 seriously ill children and young people from across the UK arrive at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses and conditions and come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs.

This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support to give seriously ill children the best chance to fulfil their potential.

My next concert is at the NJ Arts Centre on Sat 21st Oct 2023, where I’ll be playing a solo set and also a duet with Cheong Li, who plays the erhu. Get your tickets here.

The first song from my set on Sat 8th July 2023.

My next gig is coming up – this will be my ‘summer special one’, and will be my last gig until the autumn. Its a small venue so tickets will go quickly, so get them soon if you intend to some see it. I’ll be playing alongside Rita Tam, Jo Faith, and also Cheong Li (who will play the erhu, a Chinese ethnic instrument). The venue is at the back of a small church in Chelsea, London – add into this the great summer weather, and I just cant wait for this gig 🙂🎸✨💜💜
