Check out my videos below to get an idea of what I do!

OK SO, the stuff I put out is a mess of genres/covers/originals/that random thing I decided to record one Wednesday night. I enjoy a lot of different kinds of music and have many ideas in my head, so you'll get a sweet original about my very personal trauma one week and then I'm writing a villain song for a Disney Princess the next. Spotify shuffle on my artist page is a wild ride, You'll never get bored I can promise you that.

​

And of course my music wouldn't exist without the wonderful people I work with to bring these creations to life, you're all wonderful! 

​

I began as a youtube cover artist and have since expanded creatively into areas I never thought Id go, if you told me at the beginning of this journey I'd be writing my own songs I'd have laughed in your face. I'm so excited to continue writing and hope to release lots more original songs, covers, villain song and hey maybe a musical one day? jk jk, I dont have the attention span...

ABOUT MY MUSIC

MY PERSONAL ORIGINAL SONGS

These are my favourite songs to write, there is no character or IP connected to these, it's just me and a subject I wanted to write about. Very often these will be about something I've personally struggled with in the past, whether thats anxiety or the effects of the patriarchy. This is my personal style, songs from my heart <3

LEARN THE STORY BEHIND THESE SONGS
THE VILLAIN SERIES

These songs are A LOT of fun to write. This is a series I began on my youtube channel where I take a traditionally 'good' character, oftentimes a Disney Princess, and I change their story and turn them into villains. Naturally, by writing them a villain song! This might be a rewrite of a famous song from their movie or it may be an entirely original song. This is the series that really allowed my channel and music in general to grow and meet a wider audience and I'm so grateful for the positive audience it received and all those that come back each time theres a new video!

ORIGINAL SONGS FOR CHARACTERS/SHOWS/GAMES ETC

These are my strictly, 'just for fun' songs, anything i'm a big fan of and feel like writing a song for! This will likely most often be characters from animated shows that I will then write a musical theatre style song for. For example, I'm a big fan of Avatar the Last Airbender, Arcane, Hazbin Hotel etc so might take a character from that show and write a song for them. This can also extend to games i'm playing like Balders Gate 3 or Zelda

COVERS

How my channel and my musical journey began! As I mentioned before, I never used to write my own songs, I was trained in musical theatre performance so I spent all my teenage years singing other peoples songs. And my youtube channels beginning was no different. The first cover on my channel is a song called 'My future' by Billie Eilish but I wouldn't count that as my first real upload, truly my channel started when I uploaded a (pretty shoddy) cover of 'We Dont Talk About Bruno' from the film Encanto. I had no experience with recording vocals and definitely didn't know how to mix so it sounds... interesting. From then I continued recording covers of songs I loved and it is that work recording covers that created a foundation for where I am today!
