I’m a composer and performer, originally from Yorkshire (UK), currently living and working in Copenhagen (DK). I often work at an intersection between music for instruments and voices; electronic sound; text; video; and performance. My work regularly engages with a re-contextualisation of everyday sounds, objects, and automatic, repetitive behaviours to reveal the latently musical in the banal.

Recent pieces have involved, amongst other things, documentary techniques; audience participation; repetition; music-theatre; hold-music; gamification and quotation.

Recent commissions: have come from Aarhus kammerorkester; SPOR Festival (for Duo Van Vliet); Riot Ensemble / Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival (for percussionist Sam Wilson); The Night With… (for The Hermes Experiment); Hebrides Ensemble / Edinburgh Book Festival; The Cumnock Tryst (for the Scottish Chamber Orchestra); Cryptic Glasgow; Sasha Savaloni (guitarist) / Current Resonance; Nevis Ensemble (street orchestra); and Live Music Now (for the Dohnányi String Trio).

Prizes: One of four nominees for the Gaudeamus Award 2025, I'll present multiple works at the festival in Utrecht (NL), as well as a new work for NADAR ensemble, which will additionally be toured at partner festivals: Warsaw Autumn (PL), TRANSIT (BE) and New Music Dublin (IE). In 2024, the evening-length music theatre work Calls to this number are being diverted was nominated for an Ivor Novello Award in the Best Stage Works category. In 2023, Silberblau for guitar and electronics was nominated / shortlisted for both an Ivor Novello Award and a Scottish Award for New Music. In 2018, 10 Seconds, written for 9 players and 4-channel audio was awarded the Dorico Award at The Scottish Awards for New Music.
