He has released several albums to critical acclaim and performs internationally as a solo artist and with various ensembles.

Crown House is a Grade II listed building located in Hastings Old Town, originally constructed in the late 18th century. Historically used as a private residence, it later served as a commercial property before being repurposed as a venue for intimate performances and events. The building retains many of its original architectural features, including sash windows and decorative detailing. It’s known for its relatively small capacity which fosters close interaction between performers and audiences. The space has become increasingly recognised within the local arts scene for hosting diverse musical genres including jazz, folk and classical recitals.
