Absolutely thrilled to be going back into the studio to make 26 brand new tracks for my live gigs. This year I’ll be stepping into sonic recording studios with the fantastic Scott Flanigan, his bass player Rohan and the very talented Rick Swann on Trumpet. This year I will be arranging old songs my way! Songs like; The Good Life, S’Wonderful, The Best Is Yet To Come, A Foggy Day, Girl From Ipanema, It Happened In Monterey & many more …. Some of the songs featured will be accompanied only by Scott on Piano, then the rest with be a mix of the other two instruments. This gives me a brand new bag of music to perform with all over the country.

“The annual celebration of jazz and big bands will feature artists from all over the world and welcome more than 60,000 revellers over the bank holiday weekend.”
This year I got to perform for the brilliant Derry Jazz Festival. Playing venues like the Maldron Hotel, Bishops Gate Hotel and The City Hotel, rooftop terrace. What a brilliant turnout at every single gig! I varied the set to suit each performance and included beautiful standards such as;
All The Way
Our Love Is Here To Stay
Blame It On My Youth
Where Or When
I’m Old Fashioned
On The Street Where You Live
More
In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning
I’ve Got The World On A String
The Way You Look Tonight
Smile
The Shadow Of Your Smile
I’m Going To Sit Right Down And Write Myself A Letter
& Many Many More …
Some footage from the rooftop terrace show is available to watch on my Instagram page featured on my website.

In March 2018 I decided to team up with the ultra talented Scott Flanigan and his quartet to make some new music. Scott was kind enough to re-write 20 arrangements to my specification. The arrangements were then taken to Sonic Recording Studios where we recorded these charts with Scott and his quartet. The songs I chose were a mix of the great standards made famous by singers like; Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett to mention a few. The music was recorded for me to use at my live gigs an events, giving me the most professional, crisp and polished backing tracks in the country.
We recorded songs like;
Me & Mrs Jones
Our Love Is Here To Stay
Cheek To Cheek
Do Nothing Till You Hear It From Me
In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning
More
The Shadow Of Your Smile
That Old Feeling & Many More …
