    Where's the Hook?

    'Where’s the Hook? is a five-track EP that has taken me a little further afield from where I’ve been grounded over the past number of releases.

    My 80s Trenchcoat Cassette

    I grew up in the shadows of bands who didn’t just play music, they carved shapes into the way I saw the world. The Cure’s angular lines, Joy Division’s black scars, Depeche Mode’s leather-bound electronics, Siouxsie…

    Nobody Forced Me To Love

    This new EP came together without a clear plan. I didn’t set out with a concept in mind, just a feeling, something unresolved that stayed with me long enough to form words, sounds, and eventually songs.

    There are four tracks…

    Coldwave Manifesto

    NEW EP 'COLDWAVE MANIFESTO''

    "Bombs with Love from My Friends" new double Single

    New Single Out Now: Bombs with Love from My Friends

    This one’s raw.

    'Bombs with Love from My Friends' started as a phrase stuck in my head—dark, sarcastic, and sadly accurate. The song came quickly after that. It's…
