SATURDAY 21 NOVEMBER | PEREGIAN BEACHRoads Store, Peregian Beach. Doors 5:00 pm | Music 5:30 pm. Drinks and a range of delicious shared platters are available for purchase.
Six intimate gatherings. Eight original works. One new musical journey.
40 years playing other people’s music. Now it’s time to make my own.
I’m still pinching myself! My first-ever fundraiser for my own solo creative project raised $6,060 from 37 generous supporters on AUS ART DAY recently. Thank you to everyone who donated and supported me to take this creative leap. Your support means the world.
Now it’s time to get the music out of my head and into the world!
This November, following a week of focused creative development in my own studio, I’m planning my first mini-tour of Cello Dreaming before I record my debut solo album of eight original Australian works for cello and looping, inspired by the places and soundscapes of the Sunshine Coast, on Kabi Kabi Country.
I’d love you to join me for one of these intimate listening parties to experience the music while it’s still fresh, evolving and finding its shape ahead of professional recording in February 2027.
This is an invitation into my creative process, a chance to listen closely, discover how I build layers of sound, ask questions and share in the excitement of making something new.
I’m bringing this music to a string of gorgeous venues and inspiring spaces across the Sunshine Coast and hinterland. Come along, bring your curiosity and be part of it!
Thank you for helping me take this leap. I can’t wait to share the music with you.

My music is where improvisation meets contemporary art music, with my cello becoming an ambient sonic toolbox.
Using looping, delays, distortion, extended playing techniques and environmental sounds, I build layered soundscapes that move between gentle, meditative passages, hypnotic grooves, rhythmic intensity and soaring layered melodies.
I explore the full expressive range of the cello, from its lowest to highest notes, and from the end-pin to the peg box, using percussive sounds, spontaneous improvisation to create music that is atmospheric, cinematic and sometimes unexpected (even for me!).
The works respond to landscape, place, spiritual imagery and the dreamworld. They draw on my classical training while crossing stylistic boundaries into contemporary music, ambient electronics and experimental improvisation.
Cello Dreaming is my opportunity to bring these ideas together into eight original works and record them in February 2027 as my debut solo album.
