I’m happy playing in a wide variety of contexts. I’m always up for exciting new opportunities whether solo, with bands and other ensembles or even (once, so far!) with a classical orchestra.
Through most of 2024 I played theremin, keyboards and other sounds for Luiz Bruno and the Adult Children. Lu’s gone back to Brazil now, but that was a lot of fun.
It’s always a pleasure and thrill to play with Ark Potyka. Beyond NOISY SILENT FILM CLUB we sometimes release live improvisations under the name NEEN. Our latest EP, STRING THEORY, is on Bandcamp now.
I’ve created and performed soundtracks for two of T L Wiswell‘s wonderful shadow puppetry adapations of stories by H P Lovecraft – The Dreamquest of Unknown Kadath and The Doom That Came To Sarnath. An audio recording of the former, read by the amazing Jim Osman, from a performance at Bloomsbury Festival 2023 in the magnificent Crypt Gallery, is on Bandcamp now.
I was thrilled to play some lairy Beefheart-infused theremin on Winter’s Child, a fantastic track on the storming album from garage rock sensations The Beatpack, All Good Things (Turn to Dust) – available on Bandcamp here.
In January 2022 I spent some unexpected time finally getting around to mixing my recordings of one of the finest bands I’ve had the honour to be in – THRANEEN, with Ark Potyka and Sabina Spagnoli. Nothing else I’ve done sounds quite like it, before or since: here we are on Bandcamp.
On Feb 19th 2020 I played at the Theremin Centenary Concert presented by Loudspeaker Orchestra at St Alfege Church, Greenwich. I was beyond honoured to have been invited to be part of the theremin ensemble that Lydia Kavina led to celebrate the one hundredth birthday of my favourite instrument!
