There has been too many to mention! It does feel great playing in some of my favourite venues - Hammersmith Apollo was one, but equally playing at someones special event and knowing that you played a part in their special day is equally as good.
I began my career as a touring musician when I moved to London and joined a percussion theatre touring group - since then I have been a touring musician for many years across the UK, Europe and USA. Playing grassroots venues to arenas, playing live for artists including Hans Zimmer, Charli XCX and Orla Gartland. Appearing on a range of TV shows including X-Factor, The ITV Awards, Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway.
In between tours I play at events across London, the UK and beyond in clubs, weddings and private parties.
I love playing at all kinds of events - the best ones are when everyone is on the dance floor, having a great time and enjoying the music.
