Rooted in the Caribbean tradition of steelpan, I focus on presenting the instrument in both traditional and modern contexts, showcasing its versatility through instrumental covers, improvisation, and genre-blending performance.

Played major festivals and venues such as Glastonbury and Royal Albert Hall. I organised many events and mini indoor festivals under the name Hubble Bubble Sound Bazaar mostly in London and recently in Manchester.
