About
I've never been very good at staying in one musical lane—so I threw out the map and made my own route!
Growing up in West London—Ealing, to be precise—which happens to be one of the UK's most ethnically diverse boroughs, meant absorbing a bit of everything. A musical household with mixed South Asian and Christian roots only added to the mix: Gospel, country, 80s rock, Arabic maqams, Handel, musical theatre, metal. If it moved me, it found its way in. London has a way of deepening that instinct to fuse rather than choose and I feel the same.
I was originally set on being a visual artist, until my art teacher gently made it clear that perhaps my talents lay elsewhere. Singing stepped in, and honestly, it was the best redirection I never planned.
All those influences prepared me to write about life as it actually is—complicated, messy, and full of contradictions. My songs explore mental health, trauma, addiction, toxic relationships, betrayal, faith and the slow work of healing. More recently, I've been writing about love and hope too. I'm interested in the full picture: the broken bits and the beautiful ones.
My debut album, Sincerely Yours, took ten years to make. It's a collection of originals and reimagined covers—songs born from the hardest and most meaningful moments of my life. The loss of a gifted young musician to mental health struggles reminded me that we don't get forever to share what matters. So here it is.
The sound? Gospel-infused blues rock with country warmth and 80s energy. Big vocals, honest words, and hopefully something that resonates.
I've performed at the Roundhouse, Richmix, The Bullingdon, and international stages. Now based in Oxfordshire, I perform with my live band—bringing energy, heart, and songs that hopefully stay with you after the set ends.
I've learned that music has a way of meeting people where they are. I write to make sense of my own life. If someone else connects with it, even better.
Collaboration has shaped my music journey for this album in the most meaningful way. Everyone I’ve written or produced with has connected emotionally to the process. Working with producers and musicians who truly relate to a track—often because of shared experiences—has given each song more depth, life, and purpose. The experience has been priceless! Collaborators include Paul Davidson, Andrew Dreiers, Ramzi, RDS Music, Tom Hodges, Tom Read, Usha Oliver, London Mastering Studio, Arran Shanghavi, Jason Warner, Natasha Awuku Williams, Greg Coulson, Glasshouse Studios, Joshua Alamu, Stevie Vann Lange, Juilet Russell, Kim Chandler, Hope McNamara-Sear and Hannah Lee.
