With over ten years of experience as a musician and producer, my journey started in Guernsey and has led me to direct live shows and create custom backing tracks for artists and tribute projects touring the UK and Europe. Combining my production background with my work as an on-stage Musical Director, I love helping original artists rethink their music for the stage, whether for a full live gig or an intimate ‘live lounge’ session and building highly accurate backing tracks that capture the exact energy of the original record.

custom backing tracks & arrangements *
I offer custom backing tracks and arrangements designed to make your live set sound its best for tribute acts and party bands, I focus on building tracks that captures the specific energy of the original songs while making sure they fit your band's live setup. Whether you need a few extra layers or a full production to back you up, I make sure the tracks feel like a natural part of the performance.
For original artists, I offer custom arrangements to help you reimagine your music for the stage. If you want to take a studio track and turn it into something special for a live show like adding an custom intro’s and walk off’s, fun song transitions or a remixing your song into something new, I can build those elements from scratch and using the existing stems.

I specialise in taking music from the studio and translating it into a compelling live experience. I’ve had the privilege of working with artists like Praise Lubangu, CASS, and Shopé, creating everything from full scale live shows to stripped back, intimate live sessions. I also worked on my own project, WYLD, in which I took the songs I produced to a live show and a recorded live set
In addition to my work with original artists, I’ve taken over the MD role for tribute projects, The 197Live and Marcius Riley. In these roles, I help rebuild and refine their sets, focusing on the small details that elevate a show from a standard performance to a high-end production.
How I Help
Show Construction: Building a setlist that flows, including transitions and live-only arrangements.
Show Elevation: Refreshing existing sets to improve the overall sound and improve a shows flow
Live Sessions: Designing "Live Lounge" style arrangements for video content or smaller venues.
