My musical journey began at the age of just eight, when I first picked up a guitar. By eleven, I was already performing professionally alongside my dad in his band, setting the stage for what would become a lifelong career in music and entertainment.

Since those early days, I've been fortunate enough to travel the world, building a successful and varied career as a musician, musical director, producer and entertainer.

​

Alongside my brother, I run Impromptu Entertainments, one of the UK's leading entertainment companies. Together, we created the much-loved comedy duo Impromptu and the hugely popular Jump Showband, both of which continue to entertain and delight audiences across the country.

​

My career has also taken me around the world with Norwegian Cruise Line, where I spent many years performing in onboard orchestras and bands, as well as producing a number of successful production shows.

​

In 2013, I began taking on the role of Musical Director and Band Leader for major UK theatre tours and productions, including Boogie Nights the Musical and Last Night a DJ Saved My Life. These productions led to a particularly special chapter in my career: working alongside the legendary Osmond Brothers. Over the following decade, I had the privilege of touring extensively with them, while also producing and recording their studio albums and show soundtracks.

​

Away from the spotlight, I continue to work extensively as a music producer and arranger, creating original soundtracks and musical arrangements for production shows at some of the UK's leading holiday parks.

​

From live performance and musical direction to studio production and entertainment development, music has always been at the heart of everything I do — and after all these years, I'm just as passionate about it as I was when I first picked up that guitar. After a lifetime spent performing, producing and working alongside some incredible musicians and entertainers, it's a real privilege to help inspire the next generation. Music has given me so many wonderful opportunities, and if I can help others experience even a little of that same excitement and fulfilment, then that's something truly special.
