    www.thebasspixie.co.uk and www.bamboozlehq.com

    I’m a multi-genre performer from acting to music and VO to presenting, and also an accidental YouTuber. I’ve worked in many avenues in my years but always come back to performance or have it ticking away somewhere. With Bamboozle I tour and have played some great places. Double bass was never the plan, but it has become part of who I am. It’s definitely true love.
